To fit the PSI data, we added to expression 1 a temperature-independent fast-relaxing signal corresponding to a field-distribution width 600 G in order to take into account a 10% macroscopically segregated parasitic phase, which is magnetically frozen well above 65 K and which gives a fast decay at early times.
