    1111=== Sersic Index ===
    12 If we look at the sersic index for all galaxies we get the following histogram. The hisogram on the right shows the counts for pure disks and bulges. We see that the fits for bulges are clustered around 4 as expected while disks mostly have values near 1.

    18 The difference between the simulated galaxys' magnitudes and the sersic fit magnitudes are shown in the following plot. 91% of the sources are contained in the band near zero. The reason for the other bands needs to be investigated.

    2626=== Radii ===
    27 If we compare the measured widths with the source sizes we see effects that are not understood.

    4242=== Exponential magnitudes ===
    43 In general the magnitude fit with exponential model is slightly less than the expected value. However when the galaxy
    44 sample is restricted to pure disks the magnitude differences are clustered around zero.

    50 As with the sersice models, the measured width is about 2 x the modeled disk scale length.

    5451== de Vacouleur Model ==
    55 The de Vacouleur model provides a good fit to elliptical galaxies. In our sample these are represented by the galaxies
    56 with ht == -6 pure disks

    69 It looks like there is something wrong with the DEV models.The magnitude differences are all over the place and there was a problem
    70 matching up the models with the pure bulge objects.
