at thermal equilibrium, each elementary process is in equilibrium with its reverse process

Description

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

Defining Formula: $Γ_{n \to m, m > n} = e^{- \frac{E_{m} - E_{n}}{k_{B} T}} Γ_{m \to n, m > n}$
$E$ 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
