Particle production from oscillating scalar field and consistency of Boltzmann equation

Abstract Boltzmann equation plays important roles in particle cosmology in studying the evolution of distribution functions (also called as occupation numbers) of various particles. For the case of the decay of a scalar condensation ϕ into a pair of scalar particles (called χ), we point out that the...
