Integrable and superintegrable systems with spin

A system of two particles with spin s=0 and s=1/2, respectively, moving in a plane is considered. It is shown that such a system with a nontrivial spin-orbit interaction can allow an eight dimensional Lie algebra of first-order integrals of motion. The Pauli equation is solved in this superintegrable case and reduced to a system of ordinary differential equations when only one first-order integral exists. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
