25. The diffuse components of scattering were fitted to Lorentzian line shapes convoluted with the instrumental resolution. The linewidth Γ corresponds to the inverse correlation length (Γ=1/ξ), where ξ is also the spin cluster size. The intensity of the Lorentzians is proportional to the population of spin clusters.
