Electronic Raman scattering provides information on excited states, whose collective character as being related to the charge or spin density can be distinguished by using different polarization configurations. We employ time-dependent spin-density functional theory to calculate Raman spectra for circular semiconductor quantum dots with up to 10 electrons for the polarized and depolarized configuration and in dependence on an external magnetic field and the momentum transfer. Our results demonstrate an increase of the collective (or many-particle) character of the excitations with increasing momentum transfer and a mixing of spin- and charge-density modes for excitations from ground states with finite spin density. These results have predictive character, because corresponding experiments on few-electron dots have not yet been performed.
