Caption: Figure 4.

Luminosity function of Antennae clusters in the V band, with and without corrections for extinction (as indicated). The lines are power laws, dN/ dL ∝ L ^α, with best-fit exponents α = −2.09 ± 0.05 (dashed) and α = −2.37 ± 0.06 (solid) for the corrected and uncorrected luminosities, respectively.
