    # Prior on g:
    # We know that g ~ inverse_gamma(1/2, n/2), with 1/2 the shape
    # parameter and n/2 the scale parameter.
    # It follows that 1/g ~ gamma(1/2, 2/n).
    # However, BUGS/JAGS uses the *rate parameterization* 1/theta instead of the
    # scale parametrization theta. Hence we obtain, in de BUGS/JAGS rate notation:
    # 1/g ~ dgamma(1/2, n/2)
