Making some plots:

  • NUV-M24 vs R24/Rd
  • R24 vs 24um Sersic index
  • Main sequence plot on full LIR sample

But first, import some modules...

NUV-M24 vs R24/Rd


In [13]:
%run ~/github/LCS/python/Python3/LCS_MS_rf_plots.py


normalizing by radius of disk
(1800, 1800)

In [14]:
g.plotNUV24_vs_sizeratio()


Why is this important?

I think I wanted to confirm that galaxies with smaller R24/Rd were more obscured. This plot confirms that statement.

We are plotting all galaxies in the galfit sample.

are NUV and M24 correlated?

Sersic Index @24um vs R_{24}


In [38]:
%run ~/github/LCS/python/Python3/LCS_MS_rf_plots.py


normalizing by radius of disk
(1800, 1800)
<Figure size 489.6x360 with 0 Axes>

In [39]:
g.plotn24_vs_R24()


(-0.2313164488878101, 5.07216743635945, -0.4290500018745661, 9.758050080016256)

Summary

Objects with smaller R24 (less than 0.5 pixel) have higher sersic indices (>2). These objects are unresolved.

The other sources have sersic indices consistent with disk (ignoring the collection at n=5, which indicates there was some problem fitting, perhaps contamination by a neighbor).
