Luminosity functions and initial mass function variations from large samples of H II regions and molecular clouds

Open Access

Fig. 10

Comparison of the observed GMC spectral index and HII region Hα luminosity spectral index with the simulations using the stochastic and Larson (1982) limited IMFs. The point marked “ave” represents the average of the galaxies observed in Hα but not in CO plotted with the average of the galaxies observed in CO but not Hα.
