Pearson R coefficients indicating the linear correlation with the intrinsic observed AU Mic ED distribution, shown for simulated ED distributions generated using a broken power law with observed slopes α₁ = 1.39 and α₂ = 1.8 (green bars), and for single power-law distributions using α₁ (blue bars) and α₂ (red bars), respectively. Results are based on an example run with 1000 random samples.
