Abstract

•Magnetic behavior of a nanoparticle system is affected by the presence of particle magnetic moment distribution.•One can not get correct and physically meaningful fit parameters if the particle magnetic moment distribution is ignored.•This particle magnetic moment distribution using the magnetization data is estimated for 2 nm antiferromagnetic ferrihydrite particles.

Magnetization as a function of applied magnetic field at different temperatures for antiferromagnetic nanoparticles of ferrihydrite is measured and analyzed considering a distribution in particle magnetic moment. We find that the magnetization of this nanoparticle system is affected by the presence of particle magnetic moment distribution. This particle magnetic moment distribution is estimated at different temperatures.
