Nanosized iron-gold magnetic nanoparticles with an average particle size 10 nm were prepared by a reverse micelle method. The magnetic properties measurements of DC and AC magnetization confirm behaviour typical of a superparamagnetic system, such as the irreversibility of the zero-field-cooled and field-cooled curves, the frequency dependence of a blocking temperature TB, and revealing of coercivity HC below blocking temperature. The quantitative analysis of AC susceptibility due to value of parameter C1=Δ TB/(TBΔlog f)=0.0242 confirming the existence of inter-particle interaction in our system.
