Description

The principle of detailed balance can be used in kinetic systems which are decomposed into elementary processes (collisions, or steps, or elementary reactions).

Formula(s) and Quantities

$Γ_{n \to m, m > n} = e^{- \frac{E_{m} - E_{n}}{k_{B} T}} Γ_{m \to n, m > n}$
$E$ represents quantum eigen energy
$T$ represents temperature
$Γ$ represents quantum damping rate
$k_{B}$ represents Boltzmann constant
$m$ represents quantum number
$n$ represents quantum number
