It might be a dummy variable. I have seen it when Mathematica is
evaluating complicated integrals and needs to return the result in
terms of an integral (in the dummy variable).
In other words, the output looked like: Integral[ function of $K2 ,{$K2,a,b}]
By the way, when I evaluated your input, I didn't have the dummy
variable in my output:
{{f[t]->-((p-E^(F1*t)*p1+E^(F2*t)*p2)/
Sqrt[(p-E^(F1*t)*p1+E^(F2*t)*p2)^2])+
((p-E^(F1*t)*p1+E^(F2*t)*p2)*t)/
Sqrt[(p-E^(F1*t)*p1+E^(F2*t)*p2)^2]+C[1]}}
