+    The pdf of the inverse gamma distribution is defined as follows:

+    .. math::
+        \frac {\beta ^{\alpha }}{\Gamma (\alpha )}}x^{-\alpha -1}\exp \left(-{\frac {\beta }{x}}\right)

+    ----------
+    domain : Domain, tuple of Domain or DomainTuple
+        The domain on which the field shall be defined. This is at the same

+        The alpha-parameter of the inverse-gamma distribution.
+    q : float
+        The q-parameter of the inverse-gamma distribution.
