Notes. Comparison of 3 GHz VLA-COSMOS multicomponent sources to the multi-component sources in the ATLAS 3.7 deg2Chandra Deep Field-South (CDFS) field (Norris et al. 2006). ATLAS multi-components are identified from the flag CID in Table 6 of Norris et al. (2006). 3 GHz flux densities for COSMOS multi-component sources have been converted to 1.4 GHz fluxes using a typical steep spectrum index α = 0.8. Ntot is the total number of radio sources in the survey and Nm the number of multi-component sources. The rest of the columns show the number of multi-component sources per flux density bin, from 10 μJy to 2000 mJy.
