Distribution of clump sizes in filament (purple) and non-filament (green) galaxies, with medians shown as dashed lines. In each panel, we take galaxies with at least n clumps (n indicated at the top) and randomly select n clumps from the FWHM-matched populations (after the restriction of minimum number of clumps) to prevent biases towards either very clumpy (no weighting) or non-clumpy galaxies (galaxy-weighting). We find no differences in clump sizes until the n = 100 case, where filament galaxies generally have smaller clumps than non-filament galaxies. This large difference may be caused by population differences arising from very small number statistics (only ten non-filament galaxies). See text for a detailed discussion.
