Formation Pathways of Compact Elliptical Galaxies: Perspective of Internal Structures
We present a structural analysis of 138 compact elliptical galaxies (cEs) in the redshift range of z < 0.05 using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR12 data. We perform single- and double-component Sérsic model fitting to their SDSS r -band surface brightness profiles. By dividing cEs into tho...
