Abstract

An instantaneous and zero-range spin-dependent interaction, derived by summing an infinite number of electron-hole ladder diagrams within a local approximation, is analyzed as a function of the electron gas density and the relative spin polarization. The strength of such an interaction is defined by an integral of a statically screened Coulomb interaction with a spatially localized weighting factor. This weighting factor represents the mutually uncorrelated motion of an electron-hole pair in singlet or triplet spin states (Sz=0,1). An implementation, based on a Yukawa-type interaction with a spin-polarization-dependent Thomas-Fermi screening length, is given.
