The two-body collision correction t o the mean-field approximation in nuclear dynamics is discussed. The result of t h e relaxation-time approximation for the collision kernel is compared with the "exact1' calculations of Danielwicz. The relaxation-time approximation is found t o be surprisingly good when t h e exact calculations include the quanta1 effects. The broadening of energy s t a t e s (because of lifetime effects) allows classically unreachable s t a t e s t o be populated. ( 5 ) is
