We study the electron spin relaxation induced by a high frequency nanomechanical cantilever with an attached ferromagnetic particle in a situation when the spin Larmor frequency matches the cantilever frequency. We consider a situation when the spin-cantilever system is described by the Jaynes-Cumming model. We have obtained an analytical solution describing the spin relaxation caused by the spin-cantilever interaction. Based on these results, we suggest a “spin thermometer” which could measure the temperature of nanomechanical cantilevers.
