Notes. Parameters from the fit to Eqs. (2) (Cols. 2 and 3) and (3) (Cols. 4 and 5) to estimate the total fraction of collisions in a cluster depending on the initial radii of the stars Rstar and the initial number N of stars (Eq. (2)). Parameters D and E are used to estimate the mass of the most massive object divided by its initial mass (MmaxMini) at the end of the runaway growth, depending on the initial radii Rstar of the stars and the initial number N of stars (Eq. (3)).
