Kinetic equation for spin waves in a weak alternating magnetic field
O. A. Ol'khov
Abstract:
From the equation for the density matrix, a kinetic equation is obtained for the magnon population numbers
$n_k$ in the first nonvanishing approximation in the small parameter
$hA_k/\gamma_k$, where
$h$ is the amplitude of the alternating field,
$A_k$ is the constant of the coupling between the alternating field and the magnons, and
$\gamma_k$ is the damping frequency of magnons with wave vector
$k$. A diagram method is used to show that only in this approximation and, in addition, only for small frequency difference
$\omega-2\omega_k\ll\omega_k$, does
the expression for the rate of change of
$n_k$ have the simple Lorentzian form postulated earlier by White and Sparks.
