Preferred Label : Schulz–Zimm distribution;
IUPAC definition : In an assembly of macromolecules, a continuous distribution with the differential
mass-distribution function of the form: \[f_{{w}}(x)\ {d}x \frac{a {b}\, \,1}{\varGamma\left(b\,
\,1\right)}\ x {b}\ {e} {-a\ x}\ {d}x\] where x is a parameter characterizing the
chain length, such as relative molecular mass or degree of polymerization, a and b
are positive adjustable parameters, and (Γ b 1) is the gamma function of (b 1).;
