In order to obtain the information on the dynamics of magnetic moments from Mössbauer spectra of nanostructured magnetic materials one should perform a complicated description of the spectra. The possibilities of a many-state relaxation model for the description of Mössbauer spectra are studied. The many-state relaxation model is applied to explain the dependence of spectra of nanoparticles in ferrofluids on temperature. For the complicated Mössbauer spectra which can have many static subspectra, the simulation of the average hyperfine field is used. For the description of dependence of the hyperfine field on temperature the many-state model can be used to obtain the temperature dependence of magnetic anisotropy or other parameters that affect the rate of relaxation.

Tiriant magnetinių momentų dinamiką nanostruktūrinėse magnetinėse medžiagose, Mesbauerio (Mößbauer) spektrai turi būti aprašomi tinkamais dinaminiais relaksaciniais modeliais. Nagrinėjamos tam tikslui skirto daugelio būsenų relaksacinio modelio galimybės. Toks modelis gali visapusiškai paaiškinti feroskysčių spektrų priklausomybę nuo temperatūros. Sudėtingesnių medžiagų Mesbauerio spektrams, kuriuose yra daugiau negu vienas statinis pospektris, tinkamesnis kitimo nuo temperatūros apibūdinimas yra panaudojant magnetinio hipersmulkiojo lauko vidurkį. To lauko vidurkio priklausomybės nuo temperatūros modeliavimas daugelio būsenų modeliu leidžia įvertinti parametrų (pvz., magnetinės anizotropijos), įtakojančių magnetinio momento relaksaciją, priklausomybę nuo temperatūros.
