	abstract = {The analysis of galaxies on the SFR-M* plane is a powerful diagnostic 
for galaxy evolution at different cosmic times. We considered a sample
of 24463 galaxies from the CANDELS/GOODS-S survey to conduct a detailed
analysis of the SFR-M* relation at redshifts 0.5\${\textbackslash}leqslant z{\textless}\$3 over
more than three dex in stellar mass. To obtain SFR estimates, we
utilized mid- and far-IR photometry when available, and rest-UV fluxes
for all the other galaxies. We performed our analysis in different
redshift bins, with two different methods: 1) a linear regression
fitting of all star-forming galaxies, defined as those with specific
star formation rates \${\textbackslash}rm log\_\{10\}(sSFR/yr{\textasciicircum}\{-1\}) {\textgreater} -9.8\$, similarly
to what is typically done in the literature; 2) a multi-Gaussian
decomposition to identify the galaxy main sequence (MS), the starburst
sequence and the quenched galaxy cloud. We found that the MS slope
becomes flatter when higher stellar mass cuts are adopted, and that the
apparent slope change observed at high masses depends on the SFR
estimation method. In addition, the multi-Gaussian decomposition reveals
the presence of a starburst population which increases towards low
stellar masses and high redshifts. We found that starbursts make {\textasciitilde}5\% of
all galaxies at z=0.5-1.0, while they account for {\textasciitilde}14\% of galaxies at
