Abstract

The spin-spin interaction of two arbitrary spin systems is considered in some detail. The temporal evolution of the polarization parameters and the correlation parameters has been worked out. Applications of the formalism and the interpretation of the results to processes such as heavy-ion interactions, muon and nuclear repolarization and depolarization in muonic atoms and interactions of multilevel systems are outlined.
