  Far infrared radiation absorption of a quantum dot with few electrons in an
orthogonal magnetic field could monitor the crossover to the fully spin
polarized state. A Rashba spin-orbit coupling can tune the energy and the spin
density of the first excited state which has a spin texture carrying one extra
unit of angular momentum. The spin orbit coupling can squeeze a flipped spin
density at the center of the dot and can increase the gap in the spectrum.
