Poisson mixture ($Y\mid \Lambda \sim \mathrm{Poisson}(\Lambda )$)

A model with $Y\mid \Lambda \sim \mathrm{Poisson}(\Lambda )$ for a nonnegative random intensity. Conditional expectation and total variance give $\mathbb{E}Y=\mathbb{E}\Lambda$ and $\mathrm{Var}Y=\mathbb{E}\Lambda +\mathrm{Var}\Lambda$, explaining overdispersion. A Poisson-gamma mixture gives the negative binomial distribution.
