We derive in-medium nucleon-nucleon ([ital NN]) cross sections in a microscopic model. Our calculations are based upon the Bonn [ital NN] potential and the Dirac-Brueckner approach for nuclear matter. We consider energies up to 300 MeV (in the laboratory frame) and densities up to twice nuclear matter density. Our results deviate substantially from cross section parametrizations that are commonly used in the nuclear medium.
