Notes. In the first column, the luminosity bins are reported, while Cols. 2–8 report the Φ values in each luminosity and redshift bins. Bold (or italic) values represent independent luminosity bins. Values in round brackets indicate luminosity bins that are below the completeness limit, and numbers in square brackets are the number of sources in each L-z bin.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
