Apparent features are seen in both the observed and simulated luminosity functions. A crude fit to the observed differential luminosity function is given by N(L) cc L -26 Publication: The Astrophysical Journal Pub Date: November 1972 DOI: 10.1086/151743 Bibcode: 1972ApJ...177..647B full text sources ADS |
