Dipolar-controlled spin tunneling and relaxation in molecular magnets
arXiv:1110.2936 · doi:10.1140/epjb/e2012-20835-6
Abstract
Spin tunneling in molecular magnets controlled by dipole-dipole interactions (DDI) in the disordered state has been considered numerically on the basis of the microscopic model using the quantum mean-field approximation. In the actual case of a strong DDI spin coherence is completely lost and there is a slow relaxation of magnetization, described by t^{3/4} at short times. Fast precessing nuclear spins, included in the model microscopically, only moderately speed up the relaxation.
