Notes. Column 1: sample name; Col. 2: the redshift range of the sample; Col. 3: the number of clusters, Ncl; Col. 4: the number of galaxies in the sample, Ng; Col. 5: the number of clusters with σV,blue>σV,red, with a 95% (90%) c.l. significant difference according to the F-test, Ncl,F; Col. 6: the difference between the median values of the σV distributions of red and blue galaxies, ΔσV; Col. 7: the same, but normalized to the median value of σV as computed using all galaxies, ΔσV/σV; Col. 8: the number of clusters with σV,blue>σV,red, Ncl,b > r; Cols. 9 and 10: the probability of difference according to the S- and W-tests; Col. 11: the probability of difference according to the χ2-test applied to the VDPs of the ensemble cluster. The results of the KS-test applied to the velocity dispersion distributions of red and blue galaxies are not listed since no evidence of significant difference is detected.
