Same as in Fig. 4. Left panel: Ie-Re plane. Right panel: 3DKS. The physical assumptions for the SSP-models (the blue squares and solid lines) and meanings of the symbols are the same as in the previous figures. The ratio MDM/Ms is given by Eq. (18) and therefore varies with mass, MDM, and the MRR is that of the Cosmic Galaxy Shepherd. The only important difference is that both in the GLO and GAL models the radius predicted by the Cosmic Galaxy Shepherd is increased by a random quantity within the range indicated in Table 3 and Ie is accordingly decreased. In the left panel the results are plotted as a function of the reference radius to highlight the fact that the radius is changed at constant mass. The experiment is meant to show that the areas delimited by the GLO and GAL models can be populated by objects with a radius larger than the MRR of the Cosmic Galaxy Shepherd. All the models in the area comprised between the GLO and the GAL lines have no physical counterparts and should be discarded. The same considerations apply to the 3DKS shown in the right panel.
