Notes. a. The regression fits are of the form log(y)=alog(x)+b. Columns 1 and 2 identify the data used in the fit. Columns 3 and 4 list the slope a and y-axis intercept of the fitted relation. Column 5 lists the rms residuals of the fit; the observed dispersion exceeds the observational error, and the physical range of the y-parameter is about four times the quoted rms. Column 6 gives the Spearman correlation coefficient of the fit, ranging from −1.00 (perfect anti-correlation) to 1.00 (perfect correlation). Coefficients in the range −0.35 to +0.35 should be interpreted as indicating a lack of correlation, especially when slope a is also close to zero.
