Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA): mass-size relations of z0.1 galaxies subdivided by Sérsic index, colour and morphology
arXiv:1411.6355 · doi:10.1093/mnras/stu2467
Abstract
We use data from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey in the redshift range 0.01z0.1 (8399 galaxies in to bands) to derive the stellar mass half-light radius relations for various divisions of 'early' and 'late'-type samples. We find the choice of division between early and late (i.e., colour, shape, morphology) is not particularly critical, however, the adopted mass limits and sample selections (i.e., the careful rejection of outliers and use of robust fitting methods) are important. In particular we note that for samples extending to low stellar mass limits () the Sérsic index bimodality, evident for high mass systems, becomes less distinct and no-longer acts as a reliable separator of early- and late-type systems. The final set of stellar mass half-light radius relations are reported for a variety of galaxy population subsets in 10 bands () and are intended to provide a comprehensive low-z benchmark for the many ongoing high-z studies. Exploring the variation of the stellar mass half-light radius relations with wavelength we confirm earlier findings that galaxies appear more compact at longer wavelengths albeit at a smaller level than previously noted: at both spiral systems and ellipticals show a decrease in size of 13% from to (which is near linear in log wavelength). Finally we note that the sizes used in this work are derived from 2D Sérsic light profile fitting (using GALFIT3), i.e., elliptical semi-major half light radii, improving on earlier low-z benchmarks based on circular apertures.
