Abstract

In this paper, we demonstrate a new method for fitting galaxy profiles which makes use of the full multiwavelength data provided by modern large optical–near-infrared imaging surveys. We present a new version of galapagos, which utilizes a recently developed multiwavelength version of galfit, and en...
