Table 4.

Magnetization values calculated from Field Cooled/Zero Field Cooled (FC/ZFC) and hysteresis curves. Tbm—superparamagnetic blocking temperature (H–M—Hansen and Mørup model; M—Micha et al. model); Mrs—remanence; Ms—saturation magnetization; Hc—coercive field; χhf—high field susceptibility. Column MS describes blocking temperatures determined from Mössbauer spectroscopy.
