Pair statistics are computed for ﹩\Delta v\leq 500﹩ km s−1, for a range of maximum projected separations (﹩r^{\mathrm{max}\,}_{p}﹩). A minimum projected separation of ﹩r_{p}=5﹩ h−1 kpc is applied in each case. Error bars are computed using the Jackknife technique. Both Nc and Lc are cumulative statistics; hence, measurements in successive bins are not independent. The line in each panel follows the ﹩r^{3-\gamma }_{p}﹩ dependence that results from integration over the galaxy two‐point correlation function. Taking ﹩\gamma =1.8﹩ and requiring a match with the data at ﹩r_{p}=100﹩ h−1 kpc, we find good agreement at all separations.
