TY - INPR A1 - Wang, Qun A1 - Redlich, Krzysztof A1 - Stöcker, Horst A1 - Greiner, Walter T1 - Kinetic equation for gluons in the background gauge of QCD N2 - We derive the quantum kinetic equation for a pure gluon plasma, applying the background field and closed-time-path method. The derivation is more general and transparent than earlier works. A term in the equation is found which, as in the classical case, corresponds to the color charge precession for partons moving in the gauge field.
