Overview of the Near-IR S0 Galaxy Survey (NIRS0S)

Figure 12

As a function of the Hubble type are shown (a) the dust corrected , (b) the Sérsic index , (c) the ratio of the effective radius of the bulge ( ) divided by the scale length of the disk ( ), and (d) the total absolute galaxy magnitude corrected for galactic extinction ( ). The small symbols show the measurements for the individual galaxies (with a small random horizontal offset), filled circles show the median values in each Hubble-type bin, and large open circles are the median values from Graham and Worley ([64]; their value for S0s refers to types and is here drawn at ). The error bars are taken to be the sample standard deviations in each bin divided by square root of the number of galaxies in each bin. Dark symbols are for the galaxies in NIRS0S and light symbols for the galaxies in OSUBSGS. In a slightly different form, the same figure was originally published by Laurikainen et al. [27].
