Comparing the radius (left) and Herschel column density (right) distributions for detections in the filtered ACES (orange) and robust CMZoom (blue) compact continuum source catalogs. For ACES detections, the effective radius (Rsource) is calculated from the geometric mean of the FWHM axes of the fitted TGIF ellipses and the CMZoom Rleaf is calculated from the total area of its corresponding dendrogram leaf: ﹩{R}_{{\rm{leaf}}\,}=\sqrt{{A}_{\,{\rm{leaf}}}/\pi }﹩. For both the ACES and CMZoom sources, the column density is averaged over the area of the leaf from the Herschel column density map. The dashed lines show the median values of each distribution.
