Distribution of intrinsic hard-band X-ray luminosity (LX) of all the AGN in the lightcone, separated into type 1 (blue) and type 2 (orange) AGN, in different redshift bins. We also show with dashed and solid lines the subpopulations of type 1 and 2 in SF and quiescent galaxies. The vertical dotted line marks L_X = 10⁴² erg s^–1, the threshold typically applied to separate X-ray emission from AGN or from other origins.
