Abstract
Mössbauer studies on highly dilute in solid ammonia are reported. The hyperfine parameters of the paramagnetic reaction product point to a nearly atomic configuration of iron [Ar]34s. The electronic spin relaxation slows down rapidly under application of an external magnetic field. The field dependence of the magnetic hyperfine patterns indicates a strong axial magnetic anisotropy.
