Abstract: | We derive a kinetic equation for a polarized paramagnetic gas that is exact in the Boltzmann (binary) approximation. The equation is written in a compact form and applies to both Fermi and Bose gases in a wide temperature range as long as the Boltzmann approximation remains applicable. The derived equation is used to analyze the conditions for the propagation of spin waves in polarized Fermi and Bose gases. We deduce a universal criterion for the propagation of weakly damped spin waves in a wide temperature range. The criterion is reduced to the condition that the real parts of the particle zero-angle scattering amplitudes (or T matrices) be much larger than their imaginary parts. We derive dispersion equations for spin waves at high and low gas temperatures and show that spin waves can propagate in both these limiting cases. |
