Notes. (α,β) are the best-fit linear regression coefficients, σintr is the intrinsic scatter about the best-fit regression line, and ρ is the correlation coefficient. The analysis has been executed using the IDL code linmix_err.pro developed by Kelly (2007), which employes a Bayesian approach to perform a linear regression on a dataset that includes upper limits in y as well as measurement errors on both x and y. For each parameter of interest, the value and the associated error reported in the table correspond respectively to the median and to a robust estimate of the standard deviation of the posterior distribution returned by the code.
Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.
Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
