$${b}={R}+\frac{\mathrm{2}{R}\sqrt{{Rr}}}{{R}−{r}} \\ $$$${let}\:{r}=\lambda{b},\:{R}=\xi{b} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}=\xi+\frac{\mathrm{2}\xi\sqrt{\xi\lambda}}{\xi−\lambda} \\ $$$$\lambda+\frac{\mathrm{2}\xi\sqrt{\xi\lambda}}{\mathrm{1}−\xi}−\xi=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\sqrt{\lambda}=\frac{\sqrt{\xi}}{\mathrm{1}−\xi}\left(−\xi+\sqrt{\mathrm{2}\xi^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}\xi+\mathrm{1}}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\lambda=\xi−\frac{\mathrm{2}\xi^{\mathrm{2}} }{\left(\mathrm{1}−\xi\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }\left(\sqrt{\mathrm{2}\xi^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{2}\xi+\mathrm{1}}−\xi\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{r}_{{max}} \approx\mathrm{0}.\mathrm{131}{b} \\ $$
