Morphological Parameters of Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G)
B. W. Holwerda, J-C. Munoz-Mateos, S. Comeron +21
The morphology of galaxies can be quantified to some degree using a set of scale-invariant parameters. Concentration (C), Asymmetry (A), Smoothness (S), the Gini index (G), relativ…
On the Origin of Lopsidedness in Galaxies as Determined from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G)
Dennis Zaritsky, Heikki Salo, Eija Laurikainen +23
We study the m=1 distortions (lopsidedness) in the stellar components of 167 nearby galaxies that span a wide range of morphologies and luminosities. We confirm the previous findin…
The impact of bars on disk breaks as probed by S4G imaging
J. C. Muñoz-Mateos, K. Sheth, A. Gil de Paz +25
We have analyzed the radial distribution of old stars in a sample of 218 nearby face-on disks, using deep 3.6um images from the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S4G…
