## Abstract

We discuss chemical equilibration of particles carrying non-vanishing quantum numbers related with U(1) internal symmetry. We construct the transport equation for the time evolution of particle multiplicities and their probability functions. The solution of these equations is obtained in different limiting cases. It is argued that a U(1) charged particles, dependent on thermal conditions inside a fireball, approaches different equilibrium limits. The differences between kinetics of abundantly and rarely produced particles are explained.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
