Available identifiers

contact rate of one sub-population with all other sub-populations

Used in multi-population models.

Defining Formula: $a_{i} \equiv \sum_{k \neq i} α_{i k} Δ t N^{k} / N^{i}$
$N^{i}$ symbol represents Total Population Size
$Δ t$ symbol represents Time Step
$α_{i k}$ symbol represents Contact Rate
$a_{i}$ symbol represents Between Population Contact Rate
