TITLE Slow Ca-dependent potassium current
:
:   Ca++ dependent K+ current IC responsible for slow AHP
:   Differential equations
:
:   Model of Destexhe, 1992.  Based on a first order kinetic scheme
:      <closed> + n cai <-> <open>	(alpha,beta)
:   Following this model, the activation fct will be half-activated at 
:   a concentration of Cai = (beta/alpha)^(1/n) = cac (parameter)
:   The mod file is here written for the case n=2 (2 binding sites)
:   ---------------------------------------------
:
:   This current models the "slow" IK[Ca] (IAHP): 
:      - potassium current
:      - activated by intracellular calcium
:      - NOT voltage dependent
:
:   A minimal value for the time constant has been added
