Number of pairs and two-point correlation function of stars in a HST-crowded LMC field image. Top panel: number of pairs of stars per 1.2″ interval as a function of their angular separation. The dotted line gives the predicted distribution of angular separations in the case of a spatially uniform distribution of stars with the same average star density. Bottom panel: measured two-point angular correlation function of the detected stars. The lower scale is the angular separation δ and the upper scale gives the corresponding transverse separation in the LMC.
