Notes. ^(a) Mean edge length of cluster MST, m̄; the cluster correlation length, s̄; and the Q parameter defined as Q=m̄/s̄, following Cartwright & Whitworth (2004). ^(b) Quantities of the mass segregation ratio (MSR) profile: maximum number of cores for which MSR profile is different from unity, $N_{M S T}^{c r i t}$ $Mathematical equation: $N_{M S T}^{{crit}}$$ ; the MSR maximum value, $Λ_{M S R}^{m a x}$ $Mathematical equation: $\Lambda_{M S R}^{max}$$ ; and its corresponding number of cores, $N_{M S T}^{m a x}$ $Mathematical equation: $N_{M S T}^{max}$$ . These quantities are measured only in the 110 systems where the mass segregation (MS) is assessed. ^(c) Mass segregation integral, MSI, defined by Xu et al. (2024). ^(d) Flags reporting whether a signature of direct (Pos MS) or inverse (Pos Inv MS) mass segregation is found and if it is robust (additional flag Rob) against the Monte Carlo simulations described in the text. ^(e) Probability of presence of of direct (Prob1) or inverse (Prob2) mass segregation evaluated with Monte Carlo simulations.
