The low-lying excitations of metals are remarkably well explained by effective single-particle theories. Yet, strong interactions are abundant in condensed matter systems. This raises the question for direct spectroscopic signatures of phenomena beyond effective single-particle behavior. Here, we report on such a signature in the quantum oscillations (QOs) of the topological semimetal CoSi [1]. Its surprisingly simple QO spectrum related to Fermi surface pockets around the R-point [2,3] allows us to identify a QO frequency which defies the standard description in two ways. First, the frequency corresponds to the difference of quasi-particle (QP) orbits of two bands although the composite orbit is semi-classically forbidden. Second, the oscillations exist up to 50 K - in contrast to its constituent frequencies, which already vanish above a few K. We show that our findings are in excellent agreement with QOs of the QP lifetime [4]. Since the only precondition for this effect is a non-linear coupling of two orbits, e.g., due to QP scattering on defects, such QOs of the QP lifetime are generic for any metal featuring Landau quantization.
