Bound states binary density operator

C. Binary Density Operator for Higher Densities—Bound States... 

Now we want to generalize the kinetic equation for free (unbound) particles that is, we want to derive a kinetic equation for free particles that takes into account collisions between free and bound particles as well. For this purpose it is necessary to determine the binary density operator, occurring in the collision integral of the single-particle kinetic equation, at least in the three-particle collision approximation. An approximation of such type was given in Section II.2 for systems without bound states. Thus we have to generalize, for example, the approximation for/12 given by Eq. (2.40), to systems with bound states. 

As in Section II, the initial values F12(t0) and F123(/0) for the binary and the three-particle density operators must be determined. For this purpose we have to generalize the Bogolyubov condition of the weakening of initial correlations given by (2.4) for systems that do not support the formation of bound states.
