Abstract
Microwave absorption in MnAs poly- and single crystals below T(u) are identified as FMR whose resonance frequencies are determined by magnet ocrystalline anisotropy. It is found that K1 = -5.7 x 10(5) J/m3; K2 = 2.1 x 10(5) J/m3; K3 = -2.0 x 10(5) J/m3 in accord with the literatur e. The FMR linewidths are unusually large, suggesting a distribution o f exchange couplings and an additional central peak is observed in a l arge temperature range, suggesting a spin fluctuation spectrum which m ay be retrieved by a more involved calculation.
