title: Dynamics of localized spins coupled to the conduction electrons with charge and spin currents.
abstract: The dynamics of the localized spins coupled to the conduction electrons is studied theoretically in the wide range of magnitudes of the charge and spin currents including the regime which has never been explored but is now possible in terms of the pure spin-current injection methods, e.g., the spin Hall effect and spin battery. The equations of motion for the two-spin system are investigated in detail, and its phase diagram of the dynamics is presented. It is found that the dynamics depends sensitively upon the relative magnitudes of the charge and spin currents; i.e., it shows steady state, periodic motion, and even chaotic behavior. The extension to the multispin system and its implications including a possible "spin-current detector" are also discussed.
