Quantum Magnetism of the Iron Core in Ferritin Proteins—A Re-Evaluation of the Giant-Spin Model

Quantum Magnetism of the Iron Core in Ferritin Proteins—A Re-Evaluation of the Giant-Spin Model

The electron–electron, or zero-field interaction (ZFI) in the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of high-spin transition ions in metalloproteins and coordination complexes, is commonly described by a simple spin Hamiltonian that is second-order in the spin <i>S</i>: <inline-formula...
