摘要
We consider particle oscillations and their damping in second-quantized form. We find that the damping or ''decoherence'' may be described by a Boltzmann-like collision integral with ''non-Abelian blocking factors'' (fermions). Earlier results are generalized in that the momentum degrees of freedom are included and that the mixing equations become intrinsically nonlinear at high densities.
