Effect of an absorbing medium on particle oscillations

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2019-07-17 v4 Nuclear Theory

Abstract

Particle oscillations in absorbing matter are considered. The approach based on the optical potential is shown to be inapplicable in the strong absorption region. Models with Hermitian Hamiltonian are analyzed. They give an increase of the process width in comparison with the model based on the optical potential.
