R, the more
simple form
22 krR += (3)
of Boore et al (1997) and Bindi et al. (2006) was tested, so that k was fitted independent of M.
However, the least squares fit gave a negligible value for k (~10-7 km) and thus, contrary to
Joyner and Boore (1981) we find no support for this form while we do find
