✦ Synopsis

The expression for the entropy production in the decay of a neutral kaon interacting with a thermal bath of bosom, introduced in a previous article [l], is reformulated without assuming CPT conservation. The relation between the sign of Re E and the thermodynamical arrow of time is further discussed, and the ambiguity due to the definitions of matter-antimatter is resolved.

The master equation for the reduced density matrix of the neutral kaon system interacting with a (low temperature) boson gas is derived. The equation is transformed under time reversal (assuming CPT conservation) and the equations of motion in the direct and inverted time schemes are compared. The e
