We have employed time-dependent local-spin density functional theory to
analyze the multipole spin and charge density excitations in GaAs-AlGaAs
quantum dots. The on-plane transferred momentum degree of freedom has been
taken into account, and the wave-vector dependence of the excitations is
discussed. In agreement with previous experiments, we have found that the
energies of these modes do not depend on the transferred wave-vector, although
their intensities do. Comparison with a recent resonant Raman scattering
experiment [C. Sch\"uller et al, Phys. Rev. Lett {\bf 80}, 2673 (1998)] is
made. This allows to identify the angular momentum of several of the observed
modes as well as to reproduce their energies.Comment: 14 pages in REVTEX and 14 postscript figure
