Abstract
Damping effects of boson elementary excitations in the Dyson-Maleev representation of one-dimensional spin S chain using the spectral density method (SDM) are studied. For the spectral density the authors use the 'gaussian ansatz', and the reasonable results, obtained in the low-temperature limit, confirm that it is able to describe damping effects in the SDM.
