Figure 3.
The test for completeness TC applied to the 4324 galaxies (all types) of the SSRS2 sample with redshifts between 2500 and 15 000 km s−1. A systematic decline of the TC statistics can be observed beyond Top panel shows in logarithmic scale the galaxies number count in function of the limiting apparent magnitude m*. The 0.6 slope (grey line) is the slope expected if the sources were uniformly distributed in space.
