Notes: indicates a uniform prior normalized between a and b, and
a Gaussian prior with mean a and standard deviation b. When varying a given hyperparameter as a function of mass or redshift, priors on the asymptotic values are identical to the priors listed in the upper portion of the table. When varying the mean of the Gaussian peak in the black hole mass spectrum, for example, we adopt
