Abstract:
From the equation for the density matrix, a kinetic equation is obtained for the magnon population numbers nk in the first nonvanishing approximation in the small parameter hAk/γk, where h is the amplitude of the alternating field, Ak is the constant of the coupling between the alternating field and the magnons, and γk 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 ω−2ωk≪ωk, does
the expression for the rate of change of nk have the simple Lorentzian form postulated earlier by White and Sparks.
