AGN raw detection rate fdetected(L(Hβ)corr > 1039 erg s−1) as a function of stellar mass and sSFR. These detection rates have no correction for the rather severe selection effects and therefore should not be taken at face value. The bands show 68% confidence intervals (using the Clopper–Pearson method for binomial statistics; C. J. Clopper & E. S. Pearson 1934).
