Scientific paper

Two mathematical expressions were incorrectly printed on page 1531. The affected section should read as follows: Moreover, Peebles showed that if the volume density of objects is also a power law in form [i.e., eta(r) propto r^-gamma, then the spectral indices of eta(r) and W(theta) are related by the expression gamma = -1/2 B+2. In this interpretation, the steeper the slope (-B), the more centrally condensed is the radial distribution of stars. Moreover, since B < 0 for all the distributions we observed, the radial falloff of stellar volume density (i.e., gamma ~ 2.1-2.3) would be only slightly steeper than that of an isothermal distribution (gamma = 2).
