Abstract
Measurements of the complex dielectric permittivity in nominally pure are reported for frequencies Hz≤ν≤ Hz and temperatures 0.1 K≤T≤300 K. The experiments reveal relaxation phenomena similar to those reported from elastic measurements. The onset of constant loss below 50 K and a low-temperature relaxation reveals characteristic features of a tunneling motion. These phenomena can be interpreted to be characteristic of a quantum phase transition into a coherent quantum state.
