Temperature Electron Magnetic Resonance (EMR) measurements of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) and carbon nanohorns (CNH) were performed in the temperature range 5.2 – 300 K. The asymmetric resonance lines with Dyson shape were observed. The g-value of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNT) and carbon nanohorns (CNH) was calculated. Analysis of the temperature dependences of the integral intensity of EMR spectra was carried out using the Curie-Weiss law and Curie temperature θ(CNT) = 46,6 K and θ(CNT) = 8.6 K were obtained. We showed that the localization processes observed in nanocarbon materials lead to local quantum transport of spins or carriers.
