have been performed on a Mn 12-Ac oriented powdered sample as a function of
temperature, field, and orientation. Magnetization jumps and susceptibility peaks have been
observed about magnetic-field values B n= nB 1, where B 1≈ 5 kG. These anomalies are
due to the existence of relaxation rate maxima near B n. From these experimental results we
infer the existence of resonant spin tunnelling between degenerate excited levels of …
