r"""
This model provides the scattering intensity, $I(q) = P(q)S(q)$, for a lamellar
phase where a random distribution in solution are assumed. Here a Caille $S(q)$
is used for the lamellar stacks.

The scattering intensity $I(q)$ is

.. math::

    I(q) = 2 \pi \frac{P(q)S(q)}{q^2\delta }


The form factor $P(q)$ is

.. math::

        P(q) = \frac{4}{q^2}\big\{
        \Delta\rho_H \left[\sin[q(\delta_H + \delta_T)] - \sin(q\delta_T)\right]
            + \Delta\rho_T\sin(q\delta_T)\big\}^2

and the structure factor $S(q)$ is

.. math::

    S(q) = 1 + 2 \sum_1^{N-1}\left(1-\frac{n}{N}\right)
        \cos(qdn)\exp\left(-\frac{2q^2d^2\alpha(n)}{2}\right)

where

.. math::
    :nowrap:

    \begin{align*}
    \alpha(n) &= \frac{\eta_{cp}}{4\pi^2} \left(\ln(\pi n)+\gamma_E\right)
              &&  \\
    \gamma_E  &= 0.5772156649
              && \text{Euler's constant} \\
    \eta_{cp} &= \frac{q_o^2k_B T}{8\pi\sqrt{K\overline{B}}}
              && \text{Caille constant}
    \end{align*}


$\delta_T$ is the tail length (or *length_tail*), $\delta_H$ is the head
thickness (or *length_head*), $\Delta\rho_H$ is SLD(headgroup) - SLD(solvent),
and $\Delta\rho_T$ is SLD(tail) - SLD(headgroup). Here $d$ is (repeat) spacing,
$K$ is smectic bending elasticity, $B$ is compression modulus, and $N$ is the
number of lamellar plates (*Nlayers*).

NB: **When the Caille parameter is greater than approximately 0.8 to 1.0, the
assumptions of the model are incorrect.**  And due to a complication of the
model function, users are responsible for making sure that all the assumptions
are handled accurately (see the original reference below for more details).

Non-integer numbers of stacks are calculated as a linear combination of
results for the next lower and higher values.

Be aware that the computations may be very slow.

The 2D scattering intensity is calculated in the same way as 1D, where
the $q$ vector is defined as

.. math::

    q = \sqrt{q_x^2 + q_y^2}
