(Kenney and Keeping 1951) which includes the chi-squared distribution and Student's t-distribution as special cases.
Let
and
be independent unbiased estimators of the variance of a normally distributed variate. Define

Then let

which makes it a ratio of gamma distribution variates, which is itself a beta prime distribution variate,

The mean is
