Nonparametric SFHs of LEGA-C galaxies recovered with Prospector. The fitted SFR of each time bin is normalized by the total stellar mass formed up to that time bin. The SFHs are divided into the star-forming (blue) and quiescent (red) populations, based on their sSFR. In the background, we show the individual SFHs of our sample, while the thick lines and shaded areas denote the median and the 16th–84th percentile range for the star-forming (solid blue line and shaded blue area), quiescent (solid red line and shaded red area; excluding the 84 PSBs), and PSB (dashed yellow line and shaded yellow area) galaxies. The green shaded area displays the transition boundary from star-forming (dashed black line) to quiescence (solid black line). The coral point and square markers show the measurements of sSFR by Salmon et al. (2015) and Leja et al. (2022), respectively, at higher redshift. The dashed coral line shows the SFHs of lower-mass quiescent galaxies (10.5 ≤ log(M★/M⊙) < 11) from Tacchella et al. (2022).
