<p>The form given here differs slightly from the original reference by
Gustafson and Holden (1990). The parameter <code>beta</code> corresponds to 1/beta
in the original equation.</p>

<p>The solution of the FOMC kinetic model reduces to the
<code><a href='SFO.solution.html'>SFO.solution</a></code> for large values of <code>alpha</code> and
<code>beta</code> with \(k = \frac{\beta}{\alpha}\).</p>
