Inferred parent distributions of the photon index, Γ, for unabsorbed AGN (left) and absorbed AGN (right). Our results are shown in black, with error bars representing 68.3% credible intervals. The results of Ricci et al. (2017a) are plotted in red, and the dashed blue lines show those from the parametric fitting, with the filled area also showing 68.3% credible intervals. All distributions are normalized to unit area.
