λ and γ are constants that depend on quality of the packing.
B is coefficient of longitudinal diffusion.
Cs and Cm are coefficients of mass transfer in stationary and mobile phase, respectively.

Eddy Diffusion: band broadening process results from different path lengths passed by solutes.
1. Directly proportional to the diameters of packing
2. Offset by ordinary diffusion
3. Lower mobile-phase velocity, smaller eddy diffusionStagnant pools of mobile phase
retained in stationary phase.
