Sample of spatially resolved MUSE-HDFS galaxies with respect to the main sequence of star-forming galaxies. The MUSE-HDFS sample (large filled dots with error bars, except for the AGN ID #10 indicated with a large filled square) is compared with previous IFS surveys of distant galaxies up to z ~ 2.5 (open symbols, see text for references): IMAGES (z ~ 0.4 − 0.75, upward triangles), KMOS-HIZELS (z ~ 0.8, diamonds), MASSIV (z ~ 0.9 − 1.8, squares), SINS (z ~ 1.4 − 2.6, downward triangles), and OSIRIS (z ~ 1.5 − 3.3, circles). Dashed lines represent the empirical relations between SFR and stellar mass for different redshifts between z = 0 (SDSS; Brinchmann et al. 2004) and z = [ 0.5 − 2.5 ] (Whitaker et al. 2014). The MUSE-HDFS sample explores new territory in galaxy evolution studies, extending the analysis to stellar masses and SFR that are nearly two orders of magnitude lower than previous IFS samples.
