Quantum transport and response to electric fields in non-Abelian systems with spin-orbit coupling and magnetic fields — •Klaus Morawetz — Münster University of Applied Sciences, Stegerwaldstrasse 39, 48565 Steinfurt, Germany — International Institute of Physics (IIP) Av.

Electronic transport in spin-polarized systems with impurity and electron-electron interactions as well as spin-dependent meanfields is discussed. The appropriate quantum kinetic equation for SU(2) are derived with special consideration of spin-orbit coupling and magnetic fields. Linearizing, the spin and density dynamical responses to electric fields (polarized light) are calculated and several effects are described: spin-Hall, anomalous Hall and optical Hall effect, spin-heat coupling, extended quasiparticle picture and polarization effect from correlated density. Clarifying the relative importance of meanfield and scattering correlations, new modes due to magnetic fields and spin-orbit coupling are found.
