  The parameter estimates were then the mean values of these likelihood distributions, while the positive and negative confidence intervals represent the 84th and 16th percentile marks of the distribution respectively.    Finally, the mass of each cluster was measured by returning to the pre-marginalized list of chi-square values and for each point, subtracting the V-band absolute magnitude of the model, $V_m$, from the V-band absolute magnitude of the point, $V_p$. Using the formula:    \begin{equation}  \log_{10}[M]={V_m-V_p \over -2.5}.  \end{equation}
