Redshift distribution of the selected-dropout samples. The gray, blue, and red histograms show the distribution of the photometric, grism, and spectroscopic redshifts for the dropout samples, respectively. The curves show the completeness associated with the corresponding dropout criteria for a range of observed UV magnitudes, as computed from our completeness simulations (Section 3). The right-hand axis gives the scale for the completeness values.
