Abstract

We have carried out in ferritin the Field-Cooling method and data analysis proposed by Mamiya et al. (Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 67202 (2002) at T = 5 K in order to check the time magnetic relaxation of these antiferromagnetic nanoparticles as a function of the magnetic field. We found that relaxation at T = 5 K in ferritin is faster in the absence of magnetic field, in good agreement with the zero-field Resonant Spin Quantum Tunneling observed previously in ferritin (Phys. Rev. Lett. 79, 1754 (1997).
