Cosmic evolution of the SFRD. Our values compared to previous results: Stroe & Sobral (2015) at z ∼ 0.2; Sobral et al. (2013) at z ∼ 0.4, 0.84, 1.47, and 2.23; Terao et al. (2022) at z ∼ 2.3; Bollo et al. (2023) at z ∼ 4.4; and Rinaldi et al. (2023) at z ∼ 7.5. Filled circles represent values obtained from Hα luminosity functions, while open circles are from Bouwens et al. (2015) UV luminosity functions. The dotted line is the fit by Madau & Dickinson (2014). All literature results were scaled to match our Hα conversion factor.
