In his early work, he demonstrated time-reversal of dipole-dipole couplings in many-body spin systems, and introduced high sensitivity, cross polarization NMR of dilute spins such as <a href="/wiki/Carbon-13" title="Carbon-13">carbon-13</a> in solids (<a href="/wiki/Proton_Enhanced_Nuclear_Induction_Spectroscopy" class="mw-redirect" title="Proton Enhanced Nuclear Induction Spectroscopy">Proton Enhanced Nuclear Induction Spectroscopy</a>), thereby helping to launch the era of modern <a href="/wiki/Solid-state_NMR" class="mw-redirect" title="Solid-state NMR">solid-state NMR</a> in chemistry. He also developed the areas of multiple-quantum <a href="/wiki/Spectroscopy" title="Spectroscopy">spectroscopy</a>, adiabatic sech/tanh inversion pulses, zero-field NMR, double rotation and dynamic-angle spinning, iterative maps for pulse sequences and quantum control, and the quantum geometric phase.

The first is the establishment of new concepts and techniques in NMR and MRI, in order to extend their applicability and enhance their capability to investigate molecular structure, organization and function from materials to organisms. Examples of methodologies emanating from these efforts include: novel polarization and detection methods, ex-situ and mobile NMR and MRI, laser-polarized NMR and MRI, functionalized NMR biosensors and molecular imaging, ultralow and zero-field <a href="/wiki/SQUID" title="SQUID">SQUID</a> NMR and MRI, remote detection of NMR and MRI amplified by means of <a href="/wiki/Laser" title="Laser">laser</a> <a href="/wiki/Magnetometers" class="mw-redirect" title="Magnetometers">magnetometers</a>, and miniaturization including fluid flow through porous materials and "microfluidic chemistry and NMR/MRI on a chip". The second component of his research program involves the application of such novel methods to problems in chemistry, materials science, and biomedicine.<sup id="cite_ref-UCBbio_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-UCBbio-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Awards">Awards</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Alexander_Pines&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Awards"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Among his many prestigious awards and honors, Pines received the <a href="/wiki/Langmuir_Medal" class="mw-redirect" title="Langmuir Medal">Langmuir Medal</a> of the American Chemical Society, the <a href="/wiki/Faraday_Medal_(electrochemistry)" title="Faraday Medal (electrochemistry)">Faraday Medal</a> of the Royal Society of Chemistry, the <a href="/wiki/Wolf_Prize" title="Wolf Prize">Wolf Prize</a> for Chemistry (together with <a href="/wiki/Richard_R._Ernst" title="Richard R.
