ALMA data on 57 massive galaxies at 1.45<z<1.70 indicate main-sequence scatter arises equally from gas content and depletion time, with both quantities scaling as (sSFR/sSFR_MS)^0.5.

Gas Fraction and Depletion Time Drive the Main-Sequence Scatter in Massive Galaxies at $z\sim1.5$
ALMA data on 57 massive galaxies at 1.45<z<1.70 indicate main-sequence scatter arises equally from gas content and depletion time, with both quantities scaling as (sSFR/sSFR_MS)^0.5.
