Caption: Figure 11.
Comparison of the AGEL spectroscopic sample to other lensing samples. Panel (a) shows the deflector redshifts, (b) the source redshifts (all redshifts spectroscopically confirmed). The AGEL sample spans higher source and deflector redshifts than most previous samples. Panel (c) shows the relationship between source and deflector redshifts, with the Spearman rank-order correlation coefficient for each sample annotated in the bottom right corner. All the samples have p-value< < 0.05 except for SL2S (p = 0.16), implying that SL2S is the only sample in which the source redshift has no statistically significant dependence on the deflector redshift. The gray line in panel (c) shows the one-to-one relation.
