Résumé : By means of the connected-diagram expansion a generalized Boltzmann equation is obtained for the Wigner distribution function f describing distinguishable quantum particles subject to constant electric and magnetic fields. This equation is exact and meaningful in the thermodynamic limit provided that the main interaction processes which cause the change in f involve finite numbers of particles. If the interaction processes are assumed to be localized in time, and long-time solutions are looked for, the equation could be simplified so that its collision term can be described in terms of f only just like the conventional Boltzmann equation for a dilute gas.
