Predicted number density of newly appearing compact galaxies is shown by the black points. The gray triangles are the number density of compact quiescent galaxies excluding compact E+A galaxies, same as in Figure 9. The prediction is based on estimating a rate of compact galaxy production from the observed E+A galaxy number density as described in the text. The data have only been corrected for spectroscopic incompleteness and thus are lower limits to the true number density. The dashed line is the number density of compact galaxies measured in the COSMOS field (Damjanov et al. 2015).
