Notes. Columns are as follows: (1) absolute magnitude limit for volume-limited samples. (2) Maximum redshift. (3) Maximum comoving distance. (4) Number of galaxies in a sample. (5) Number of groups in a sample. (6) Mean pairwise separation of galaxies in comoving coordinates. (7) Used linking length (LL) in physical coordinates. (8) LL value in units of mean pairwise separation: bcom = bgal(1 + z). (9) Fraction of galaxies in groups. (10) Group number density. (11) Luminosity weight for volume-limited samples.

(a)

Galactic-extinction-corrected Petrosian magnitude limit.
