Merger fraction in AGNs vs non-AGNs. Top: Merger fraction in MIR, X-ray, and SED AGNs and the respective non-AGN control samples per z-bin. Filled bars indicate the merger fractions for MIR (red), X-ray AGNs (blue), and SED AGNs (orange), respectively. Empty bars correspond to the merger fractions in the non-AGN controls. Errors are calculated through binomial statistics. Bottom: Ratio of the merger fraction in AGNs relative to non-AGN controls (i.e. the merger excess) for the main classification (filled symbols) and the worst-case scenario (empty symbols). Dashed line indicates no merger excess. First column displays previous literature results.
