Popis: The magnetization dynamics of Cd1x Mnx Se at 4.5 K as a function of magnetic field up to 22 T was measured using a nonresonant technique. For x = 0.01 the relaxation does not depend on orientation and in higher fields the relaxation rates are proportional to B3 . For x = 0.02 a dependence on orientation is observed. The difference does not depend on magnetic field. This suggests that either the interaction between Mn ions responsible for spin—lattice relaxation in Mn clusters is anisotropic, or the relaxing clusters are oriented in a given manner with respect to the c axis.
