## Abstract

In a medium where a photoreactive species produces N equally photoreactive radicals, by combining the Lambert-Beer law for the decay of light intensity, as a beam propagates into the medium, with the kinetic equation, one obtains a generalization of the Wegscheider equation from photobleaching theory. It is shown that this equation can be solved exactly, but implicitly, and can be reduced to a first order ordinary differential equation in a single reduced variable.

## Recorded benchmark results

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.
