Star formation rates versus stellar masses for our sample, divided into different redshift intervals covering 1 ≤ z ≤ 9. Galaxies are represented in gray in a 2D histogram using a symmetric logarithmic scale. In light red, we include a scatter plot (i.e., individual points) showing the galaxies that did not pass our sSFR screening. The vertical cyan lines denote the 80% mass completeness limits of our dataset. Previous limits from CANDELS are represented as vertical fuchsia lines (B+19, not corrected for outshining). The horizontal lines show our SFR limits, computed without attenuation (dashed red line) and taking the median Av of the sample in the corresponding z interval (solid red line). The LOWESS fit to the MS is shown as a thick blue line; running medians are displayed as blue circles, and the standard deviation is represented by the shaded blue region. We include four fits from the literature as dashed lines: green for Iyer et al. (2018), brown for B+19, orange for Leja et al. (2022), and pink for M+23. These fits are plotted down to their M★ completeness limits. B+19 and M+23 fits were corrected for outshining using the Sorba & Sawicki (2018) prescription. The last panel shows all our fits together, color-coded by redshift. They are displayed down to the corresponding M★ and SFR limits of the bin (see Sect. 3.2).
