Table 4

1σ marginalised confidence limits on the amplitude A, the slope of the additional redshift dependence ηother, and the luminosity dependence β of the intrinsic alignment model (19).

SDSS LRG 6 1.37 0.09
SDSS LRG + L4 + L3 8 1.23 0.16
MegaZ-LRG + L4 + L3 4 0.60 0.89
MegaZ-LRG + SDSS LRG 8 1.15 0.24
MegaZ-LRG + SDSS LRG + L4 + L3 10 1.09 0.32

Notes. Shown are the fit results for A, ηother, and β for various sample combinations. In addition we list the number of subsamples Nsample used for the joint fit and the reduced χ2 including p-value. The number of the degrees of freedom is given by 5   Nsample − 3. We have used flat priors A ∈ [0;20], ηother ∈ [−10;10], and β ∈ [−5;5], except for the case “MegaZ-LRG + L4 + L3”, where ηother ∈ [−20;20] was assumed instead.
