Abstract
Technical issues in respect of the observance of detailed balance in the calculation of rate coefficients in the circumstellar environment are discussed. The central problem is that of two competing heat baths that are at different temperatures (vibrational disequilibrium), and it is not immediately clear as to how detailed balance should be applied. This issue is discussed and a possible approach to the problem presented.
