Detailed Description

Daughter size distribution model of Laakkonen et al. (2007). Note that the diameters in the original expression were substituted by bubble volumes giving.

$(1 + C_4)(2 + C_4)(3 + C_4)(4 + C_4) \times \left(\frac{1}{3}\right) \left(\frac{1}{v_j}\right) \left(\frac{v_i}{v_j}\right)^{2} \left(1 - \frac{v_i}{v_j}\right)^{C_4}$

where

	=	Volume of daughter bubble i [m3]
	=	Volume of mother bubble j [m3]

The total number of daughter bubbles generated depends on C4 and evaluates to

$\frac{4}{3} + \frac{C_4}{3}$
