Sample:

  • Radial velocity in radio ν < 3000 km s−1 (equivalent to D=41 Mpc)
  • Integrated blue magnitude mBcorr < 15.5 mag
  • Angular diameter D25 > 1’
  • Galactic latitude > 300

⇒ N=2352 galaxies (+ 62 in the same frames)

Data:

  • IRAC images at 3.6 and 4.5 µm wavelengths
  • Map the galaxies up to 1.5 x D25
  • Surface density limit: µm(AB)3.6 ∼ 27 mag arcsec−2
  • Pixel resolution (3.6 µm) = 0.75” (for sampling 1.2”)

Decomposition approach:

Use GALFIT (Peng et al. 2010)

  • Levenberg-Marguadt algorithm:

χ2 = 1 N X

x

X

y

[OBS(x, y) − MODEL(x, y)]2 σ(x, y)2 (1) ⇒ minimize χ2 between observed and model images ⇒ model image convolved with the image PSF

  • Use generalized ellipses for isophotes (C=0):

r(x′, y′) = |x′ − x0|C+2 + ˛ ˛ ˛ ˛ y′ − y0 q ˛ ˛ ˛ ˛

C+2! 1 C+2

Fitting functions:

ersic function (bulge) :

Σ(r) = Σe exp “ −κ h (r/re)1/n − 1 i” (3)

  • Exponential function (disk):

Σ(r) = Σo exp(−r/hr) (4)

  • Exponential function (edge-on disk):

Σ(rx, rz) = Σo rx hr K1 „rx hr « sech2(rz/hz), (5)

  • Modified Ferrers function (bar, β=0, α=2):

Σ(r) =  Σ0 ˆ 1 − (r/rout)2−β˜α r < rout r ≥ rout (6)

  • PSF-convolved point source (unresolved central source)

What do we need:

  • Mosaicked science images (no none pixel values; PI)
  • PSF-image (oversampled, composite over rot. angles; Jarret)
  • Sigma-images (created from PI weight images)
  • Mask-images (created with SExtractor, edited by hand)
  • Orientation parameters, sky background, galaxy center

⇒ important to use those given with the decompositions

Running the decompositions:

  • Use GALFIDL (Salo)

⇒ creation of σ images ⇒ semiautomatic filling of the input files ⇒ visualization of the outcome

What kind of decompositions:

(1) Automatic single S´ ersic fits (2) Automatic S´ ersic+expo fits (BD) (3) Individually checked bulge/disk/bar/nucleus fits (BDbarn): BD / BDn BDD / BDDn BDbar / BDbarn DDbar / DDbarn Dbar / Dbarn DD / DDn D / Dn Similar edge-on models

SLIDE 11

Exponential disk + Ferrers bar

⇒ highlights non-axisymmetric structures; (Laurikainen et al. 2005) ⇒ important to look at: the profile and the model image

Fitting based on χ2, but in final model selection not critical

Multi-component vs BD fits

’Bulge’+’Disk’ galaxies:

Inclusion of bar-component crucial in order to get correct ← bulge S´ ersic index ← Bulge effective radius/ disk scale length

Multi-component fits in agreement with our NIRS0S /OSUBSGS fits (Laurikainen et al. 2007)

An other way of showing the effect of bars:

⇒ automatic BD-fitting: does not work for barred galaxies ⇒ final models: similar in barred/non-barred galaxies

Conclusions:

Suitable:

  • Properties of bulges and disks in a large galaxy mass range
  • Easy to do new decompositions

Limitations:

  • Pixel resolution (pix=0.75”, final FWHM ∼ 2”)

⇒ small bulges not always possible to separate from PSF ⇒ not very good for nuclear bars/rings/lenses

What kind of decompositions depends on the science goal! IRSA: now 200 gal., the rest Dec 2013
