fields the material is driven to emit a new pulse: the MR-CMDS signal. %
This signal may be different in frequency from the input pulses, and it may travel in a new
direction depending on the exact experiment being performed. %
+% BJT: flip proceeding sentence around
The MR-CMDS experiment involves tracking the intensity of this output signal as a function of
different properties of the excitation pulses. %

Thus MR-CMDS can be thought of as a multidimensional experimental space, where experiments
typically involve explorations in one to four of the properties above. %
+% BJT: emphasize UP TO four dimensions, practically
Because MR-CMDS is a family of related-but-separate experiments, each of them a multidimensional
space, there are special challenges that must be addressed when designing a general-purpose MR-CMDS

These issues require development of software, hardware, and theory. %
Five different improvements to MR-CMDS are presented in this dissertation: 1. processing software
