Magnitudes and rate constants are from Table 2 in Watson (34). The time constant (τ) is given by 1/rate. Nor. area is the area of the three exponentials after normalizing to an area of 1.0. The relative error (Eq. 4) for the six estimated parameters was 0.0059 ± 0.0042 (mean ± SD). Estimates are based on 107 simulated dwell times.
