Results from the K-S tests between the radial distributions of the different evolutionary phases (all possible combinations).

K-S p-value (%)

RHB – Whole pop. 1.2 26.4 6.8 × 10-3

RHB – BHB 1.1 8.5 × 10-9 8.9 × 10-16
Bright BSs – Faint BSs 4.0 1.3 × 10-3 2.2
RHB – Bright BSs 93.7 2.6 31.6
BHB – Faint BSs 54.0 0.042 2.6 × 10-11
RHB – Faint BSs 2.5 3.0 × 10-14 0.088
BHB – Bright BSs 0.81 8.8 × 10-3 3.9 × 10-11

Notes. Column #2 is just for comparison with results from Lee et al. (2003), where contamination is included and the coverage is limited to a major axis radius of ~25 arcmin. Columns #3 and #4 show the different p-values obtained when contamination is included or subtracted, respectively.
