SUMMARY:Spin-charge scattering in Luttinger Liquids\, R. G. Herb Conde
 nsed Matter Seminar\, Alex Levchenko
DESCRIPTION:I will discuss the violation of spin-charge separation in 
 generic Luttinger liquids and investigate its effect on the relaxation
 \, thermal and electrical transport of genuine spin-1/2 electron liqui
 ds in ballistic quantum wires. We will identify basic scattering proce
 sses compatible with the symmetry of the problem and conservation laws
  that lead to the decay of plasmons into the spin modes and also discu
 ss Brownian backscattering of spin excitations. I will present a close
 d set of coupled kinetic equations for the spin-charge excitations and
  solve the problem of electrical and thermal conductance of interactin
 g electrons for an arbitrary relation between the quantum wire length 
 and spin-charge thermalization length.
