We find that the PDF of luminosities is relatively broad, exhibiting a spread of as much as an order of magnitude at fixed subhalo mass and halo-centric distance. The luminosity PDF allows for simple construction of mock samples of gamma-ray luminous subhalos and assessment of the variance in among predicted gamma-ray signals from dark matter annihilation.
