What is Nonlocal Collision Integral about?

## Abstract The kinetic equation with the nonlocal shifts is presented as the final result on the way to derive the kinetic equation with nonlocal corrections. The exclusive dependence of the nonlocal and non-instant corrections on the scattering phase shift confirms the results from the theory of gases. With the approximation on the level of the Brueckner reaction matrix, the corresponding non-instant and nonlocal scattering integral in parallel with the classical Enskog’s equation, can be treated with Monte-Carlo simulation techniques. Neglecting the shifts, the Landau theory of quasiparticle transport appears. In this sense the presented kinetic theory unifies both approaches. An intrinsic symmetry is found from the optical theorem which allows for representing the collision integral equivalently either in particle-hole symmetric or space-time symmetric form.
