Caption: Figure A1.

Synthetic mass distribution as a function of x due to hierarchical mergers with a = 2, b = 0 and no depletion, starting with a truncated power-law distribution at x = 0. Colors and legend denote different choices for x. The right panel uses a log-linear scale to highlight exponential decay at large mass.
