Table 1.

Different functions to describe the IMF–CMF and the scaling of the tail.

f(m) Tail Index
Linear ξ(m) = dn/dm mα α

Logaritmic ξ(log m) = dn/dlog m m × mα α + 1

CCDF P ( m ) = m ξ ( m ) d m $ P(m) = \int^{\infty}_{m} \xi(m\prime)\mathrm{d}m\prime $ mα + 1 α + 1

Notes. The logaritmic version of the mass spectrums and the CCDF have the same scaling for the tail, but this is purely coincidental.
