Abstract

The room temperature 9.5 GHz ESR spectrum of a natural tremolite single crystal containing 0.15% Mn²⁺ is analysed using both perturbation and numerical solutions to the experimental Hamiltonian. The analysis is in three parts: (i) allowed,

{Δ M}_{S} =± 1

{Δ M}_{I} =0

transitions, (ii) forbidden,

{Δ M}_{S} =± 1

{Δ M}_{I} >0

transitions, and (iii) forbidden,

{| Δ M}_{S} | > 1

transitions. Mn²⁺ occupies only a single site in the tremolite structure.
