Notes. Number of true z > 6 galaxies and z > 6 contaminants, from various combinations of Euclid and ancillary data, based on the restricted faint mock sample. The restricted faint mock sample consists of sources that have a 5σ flux measurement in at least one the Euclid NIR bands. We report the contamination fraction and z > 6 completeness, where the latter is calculated as the fraction of all fiducial zfid = 6–8 sources that satisfy the detection threshold requirement.
