The Isophotal Structure of Star-forming Galaxies at $0.5<z<1.8$ in CANDELS: Implications for the Evolution of Galaxy Structure

Dongfei Jiang, F. S. Liu, Xianzhong Zheng +15

We have measured the radial profiles of isophotal ellipticity ($\epsilon$) and disky/boxy parameter A${}_4$ out to radii of about three times the semi-major axes for $\sim 4,600$ s…
