Distribution of the specific star-formation rate (sSFR) of the central regions and disks of our selected sample of disk-like galaxies at z = 0 (top panel) and z = 1.5 (bottom panel). The sSFR of the different components of the galaxies are calculated as described in Sect. 5.1. We divide the sSFR of the central regions and disks in tertiles (dashed lines) and we select the four galaxy sub-samples lying on the outside of the tertile contours (coloured points). These four galaxy sub-samples represent the sub-samples of star-forming cores (disks) and quenched cores (disks) defined in Sect. 5.1, similarly to Le Bail et al. (2024).
