Notes. 

(a)

Spearman rank correlation coefficient of Arot/σ0 vs. the considered parameter.

(b)

Absolute value of the associated t variable as defined in Press et al. (1992).

(c)

Number of clusters involved in the correlation. t is approximately distributed as a Student distribution with Nclus − 2 degrees of freedom (Press et al. 1992).

(d)

Probability to obtain a value of s higher than or equal to observed, in absolute value [i.e. P(|s| ≥ |sobs|)] from two independent variables (i.e. in absence of correlation), from a Student test.

(*)

Peri-galactic distance (Rper) and maximum distance above the Galactic plane (Zmax) are taken from Dinescu et al. (1999); Casetti-Dinescu et al. (2007), as in Carretta et al. (2010a).
