Notes.

^(a)

The sample size of the major (minor) axis angular sizes is 18 (15), while that of the linear sizes is 15 (13), i.e. the number of SMGs with either a z_spec or z_phot value available.

^(b)

The median value of θ_min could not be derived using the K-M estimator. Hence, it was calculated using the MLE (assuming lognormal distribution), which is almost identical to the K-M function.

^(c)

A two-sided 95% confidence interval for the mean value computed using the K-M method.
