Field-theoretical approach to particle oscillations in absorbing matter
The oscillations in absorbing matter are considered. The standard model
based on optical potential does not describe the total transition
probability as well as the channel corresponding to absorption of the
-particle. We calculate directly the off-diagonal matrix element in the
framework of field-theoretical approach. Contrary to one-particle model, the
final state absorption does not tend to suppress the channels mentioned above
or, similarly, calculation with hermitian Hamiltonian leads to increase the
corresponding values. The model reproduces all the results on the particle
oscillations, however it is oriented to the description of the above-mentioned
channels. Also we touch on the problem of infrared singularities. The approach
under study is infrared-free.Comment: 27 pages, 8 figure
