*This model was implemented by an interested user!*

Unlike a concentrated polymer solution, the fine-scale polymer distribution
in a gel involves at least two characteristic length scales,
a shorter correlation length ( $a1$ ) to describe the rapid fluctuations
in the position of the polymer chains that ensure thermodynamic equilibrium,
and a longer distance (denoted here as $a2$ ) needed to account for the static
accumulations of polymer pinned down by junction points or clusters of such
points. The latter is derived from a simple Guinier function. Compare also the
gauss_lorentz_gel model.


Definition
----------

The scattered intensity $I(q)$ is calculated as

.. math::

    I(Q) = I(0)_L \frac{1}{\left( 1+\left[ ((D+1/3)Q^2a_{1}^2
    \right]\right)^{D/2}} + I(0)_G exp\left( -Q^2a_{2}^2\right) + B

where

.. math::

    a_{2}^2 \approx \frac{R_{g}^2}{3}

Note that the first term reduces to the Ornstein-Zernicke equation
when $D = 2$; ie, when the Flory exponent is 0.5 (theta conditions).
In gels with significant hydrogen bonding $D$ has been reported to be
~2.6 to 2.8.
