Caption: Figure 2.

The total mass distribution of BBH mergers at three successive time steps evolving from a Salpeter natal distribution (α = 2.35) with coupling parameters a = 2 and b = 0. The smooth curves overlaid on the histograms are kernel density estimates of the Monte Carlo samples and are shown purely to guide the eye.
