In the present paper, a new technique is presented to
study the problem of invertibility of unbounded block

operator matrices defined with diagonal domain.
Sufficient criteria are established to guarantee our interest and to prove some interaction between such a model of an operator matrix and its diagonal operator entries.
The effectiveness of the
proposed new technique is shown by a physical example of an integro differential equation
named the neutron transport equation with partly elastic collision operators.
In particular, the obtained results answer the question in [H. Zguitti,
A note on Drazin invertibility for upper triangular block operators,
Mediterr. J. Math. 10 2013, 3, 1497–1507]
and the conjecture in [A. Bahloul and I. Walha,
Generalized Drazin invertibility of operator matrices,
Numer. Funct. Anal. Optim. 43 2022, 16, 1836–1847].
