SFR as a function of stellar mass (left). The solid line shows the MS from the L-GALAXIES2020 simulations estimated using LTGs (see main text for details) and is a power-law fit described as log(SFR) = a × log(M_*)+b with coefficients given in the legend. The dotted line shows the MS estimated using a prescription from Speagle et al. (2014), both at z = 0.18. Orange and gray points show the GAMA, and L-GALAXIES2020 ETG samples. Normalised stellar mass distribution for the mentioned samples (top). Dust mass as a function of redshift (right). The dashed line shows the dust mass limit estimated for the GAMA sample. More details are given in Sect. 2.3.
