Fig. 1.
The distribution of mass ratio M2/M1≤1 for our standard model. The distributions of the initial mass ratio and the one when the binaries become BBHs which merge within the Hubble time are shown as red and light blue lines, respectively. The initial mass ratio distribution is normalized by the total binary number Ntotal=106, while the one when the binaries become merging BBHs is normalized by the total merging binary number Ntotal BHBH=128897.
