In this article, the quantization of energy levels in very nanoparticles suppresses dissipative processes that convert grain rotational kinetic energy into heat, and the suppression of dissipation can be extreme.Abstract:
The quantization of energy levels in very nanoparticles suppresses dissipative processes that convert grain rotational kinetic energy into heat. For grains small enough to have GHz rotation rates, the suppression of dissipation can be extreme. As a result, alignment of such grains is suppressed. This applies both to alignment of the grain body with its angular momentum J, and to alignment of J with the local magnetic field B_0. If the anomalous microwave emission is rotational emission from spinning grains, it will be negligibly polarized at GHz frequencies, with P < 10^{-6} at frequencies above 10 GHz.read more

TL;DR: Anomalous microwave emission (AME) is a component of diffuse Galactic radiation observed at frequencies in the range of 10-60 GHz as discussed by the authors. But it cannot be explained by synchrotron or free-free emission mechanisms, and is far in excess of the emission contributed by thermal dust emission.
