A generalization of the Golden Rule of a resonant state
ORAL
Abstract
We present a generalization of Fermi's Golden Rule that yields the decay rate of a resonance. From this decay rate, we extract an energy distribution of decay events of a resonance that, contrary to Fermi's Golden Rule, involves the Breit-Wigner distribution.
