      <text>Measurement method of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in which data are collected in two time domains: acquisition of the free induction decay (\(t_{2}\)) and a successively incremented delay (\(t_{1}\)).</text>
      <notes>
        <item>The resulting data matrix is subjected to two successive Fourier transforms to produce a spectrum with two frequency axes, usually either chemical shift/chemical shift (correlation spectroscopy) or chemical shift/J-coupling (see J-resolved spectroscopy).</item>
