40. The derivation is based on a statistical analysis on the distribution of domain size and will be published separately. Although the variable d̄ cancels in Eq. 2, it is retained in order to express Eq. 2 in dimensionless quantities. The dependence of ISHG on the domain size manifests as dependence on σd.
