Influence of galaxy stellar mass and observed wavelength on disc breaks in SG, NIRS0S, and SDSS data
Jarkko Laine, Eija Laurikainen, Heikki Salo
Breaks in the surface brightness profiles in the outer regions of galactic discs are thought to have formed by various internal and external processes, and by studying the breaks w…
How similar is the stellar structure of low-mass late-type galaxies to that of early-type dwarfs?
