Abstract
There are 5 different Au-sites in the Au55 core of Au55(PPh3)12Cl6. The 13 inner atoms are almost identical to that of bulk gold. At the surface the attachment of the ligands is responsible for further differentiation. We have calculated the low temperature specific heat using the Mossbauer determined electrical quadrupolar splitting of the surface atoms. Due to too long a quadrupolar relaxation time, no such contribution is seen in the zero field results (down to 0.06 K) of Goll et al., Z. Phys. D 20, 329 (1991). The latter zero and in-field data are interpreted as the contribution of an electronic spin, hyperfine coupled to a nuclear spin 3/2. The effective abundance is about one spin per ten clusters.
