The Soneira-Peebles model (Soneira & Peebles 1978) is applied to study the clustering distribution. Started from level L = 0, eta is the number of points within each circle at each level, the radius at each level is R / lambda ^ L and total points are eta ^ L. The fractal dimension D = log(eta)/log(lambda). The corresponding slope in 2D two-point correlation function is D – 2.
