We present a new method for the determination of the magnetic moment distribution of ferrofluid particles from the magnetization curve measured on diluted ferrofluid samples in the liquid state. The method employes the solution of the standard integral equation describing the magnetization of a non-interacting particle system in the given external field as a convolution of the Langevin function with the distribution of particle moments. No a priori assumptions concerning the shape of the corresponding distribution are required. We present the reconstruction results obtained both for the computer simulated magnetization curves (to find out the limitations of the method) and for real experimental data. In the latter case we compare the distributions found using our algorithm with those calculated from the particle size distributions obtained via the electron microscopy images of the ferrofluid particles.
