For the general birth, death and catastrophe process note on extinction times

Abstract:: We consider a birth, death and catastrophe process where the transition rates are allowed to depend on the population size. We obtain an explicit expression for the expected time to extinction, which is valid in all cases where extinction occurs with probability 1. ©Applied Probability Trust 2007.
