Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1)
Astronomy and Astrophysics, vol. 711, pp. A8
Abstract
We present the results of the single-component Sérsic profile fitting for the magnitude-limited sample of I E < 23 galaxies within the 63.1 deg 2 area of the Euclid Quick Data Release (Q1). The associated morphological catalogue includes two sets of structural parameters fitted using SourceXtractor++ : one for VIS I E images and one for a combination of three NISP images in Y E , J E , and H E bands. We compared the resulting Sérsic parameters to other morphological measurements provided in the Q1 data release and to the equivalent parameters based on higher-resolution Hubble Space Telescope imaging. These comparisons confirmed the consistency and the reliability of the fits to Q1 data. Our analysis of colour gradients shows that NISP profiles systematically have smaller effective radii ( R e ) and larger Sérsic indices ( n ) than in VIS. In addition, we highlight trends in NISP-to-VIS parameter ratios with both magnitude and n VIS . From the 2D bimodality of the ( u − r ) colour-log( n ) plane, we defined a ( u − r ) lim ( n ) that separates early- and late-type galaxies (ETGs and LTGs). We used the two sub-populations to examine the variations of n across well-known scaling relations at z < 1. The ETGs display a steeper size–stellar mass relation than the LTGs, indicating a difference in the main drivers of their mass assembly. Similarly, LTGs and ETGs occupy different parts of the stellar mass–star-formation rate plane, with ETGs at higher masses than LTGs and further below the main sequence of star-forming galaxies. This clear separation highlights the link known between the shutdown of star formation and morphological transformations in the Euclid imaging data set. In conclusion, our analysis demonstrates both the robustness of the Sérsic fits available in the Q1 morphological catalogue and the wealth of information they provide for studies of galaxy evolution with Euclid .
