EllipSect: Analysis tool for GALFIT output
Añorve, Christopher; Ulises Reyes-Amador, Omar; Ríos-López, Emmanuel; de Ramón Tadeo, Diego; López-Cruz, Omar
EllipSect creates surface brightness profiles and extracts other photometric data from GALFIT (ascl:1104.010) output. It creates a surface brightness profile for the galaxy, model, and, optionally, individual model components. The code computes variables such as absolute magnitude, luminosity, flux, total apparent magnitude, and bulge to total ratio. EllipSect also computes mean surface brightness at effective radius, percentage of total light per component, radius at 90% of light (for Sersic components), among other variables.
