abstract
The propagators of unstable particles are considered in the framework of the convolution representation. Spectral function was found for a special case when the propagator of scalar unstable particle has Breight-Wigner form. The expressions for the dressed propagators of unstable vector and spinor fields are derived in an analytical way for this case. We got the propagators in modified Breit-Wigner forms which correspond to the complex-mass definition.

Bulk viscosity from neutron decays to dark baryons in neutron star matter
