Mass-loading factor, η, as a function of circular velocity, V_c (upper-panel) and stellar mass, M_* (bottom-panel). Symbols and solid lines for this work and Perrotta et al. (2023) are previously described in Fig. 8. Observational data of star-forming galaxies from MEGAFLOW survey (Schroetter et al. 2016) by Schroetter et al. (2024, black cross) and of star-forming galaxies from the MOSFIRE survey by Weldon et al. (2024, black squares) are shown, both at z ∼ 1. Observations at z ∼ 2 of a star-forming galaxy from Sugahara et al. (2017, black hexagon), of main-sequence galaxies from the KLEVER survey by Concas et al. (2022, black stars) and low-mass star-forming galaxies by Llerena et al. (2023, black cross) are also displayed. The best-fitting regression reported by Muratov et al. (2015) previously described in Fig. 9, $\eta \propto V_{\mathrm{c}}^{-1.2}$ for the relation reported by Hopkins et al. (2012, black dashed line) for z ∼ 1 and $\eta \propto M_{\ast }^{-0.43}$ by Arribas et al. (2014, dashed dotted lines) is shown. Median of log₁₀(M_*) are artificially displayed by +0.05 dex for the expelled mass rate and −0.05 dex for the unbound outflows, and the median of V_c is artificially moved +10 km/s for the expelled mass rate (orange circles) and −10 km/s for the unbound outflows (green circles), for visualisation purposes only.
