Comparison between the population of MBHs accreting during the thin disc mode (0.03 < f_Edd ≤ 1.0) and super-Eddington (f_Edd > 1). The results correspond to the ones of L-Galaxies applied on the Millennium simulation. Upper panel: Number density of AGNs accreting at super-Eddington (red) and at thin disc (black) regimen. While circles represent the whole population of AGNs, squares, and stars correspond to AGNs triggered by MBHs with M_BH > 10⁶ M_⊙ and M_BH < 10⁶ M_⊙, respectively. Middle and bottom panels: Median stellar mass (specific star formation rate, sSFR) of the galaxies hosting AGNs in the super-Eddington (red) and thin disc regimen (black). The shaded area corresponds to the percentile 16^th–84^th.
