Distributions of L_1.4 (top), L_IR (middle), and galaxy ℳ_* (bottom) of our sample, as a function of redshift. Grey empty circles are VLA sources with an optical-NIR counterpart (Laigle et al. 2016) within the UltraVISTA 1.5 deg² area, while red crosses mark the subset classified as ‘star-forming’ based on NUVrJ criteria. Dotted lines in the bottom panel enclose the ℳ_*–z space of the final sample (5,658 sources).
