$\begin{figure} \par\includegraphics[width=16.5cm,clip]{4065fig1.eps} \end{figure}$ Figure 1: Galaxies studied in the present paper as they appear on STIS open mode ( $\sim$ V) and NICMOS J passband images of the HDF-S NICMOS field. For clarity, the studied galaxy has been encircled on some images. The angular size of each image is $4.5\times 4.5$ arcsec. x and y coordinates of NICMOS images are used as galactic names; z is photometric redshift.

(3) (dashed lines) at different n values. Surface brightness value $\mu$ and radius r are given in the same relative units for both distributions. No rescaling has been conducted to match the curves.

Open circles stand for galaxies with absolute luminosity M_B < -20 mag, gray circles for -19 mag < M_B < -20 mag and black circles for M_B < -19 mag.

$\begin{figure} \par\includegraphics[width=8cm,clip]{4065fig7.eps} \end{figure}$ Figure 6: The Sérsic luminosity profile effective radius $r_{\rm e}$ as a function of redshift. Open circles stand for galaxies with absolute luminosity M_B < -20 mag, gray circles for $-19~{\rm mag} < M_B < -20$ mag and black circles for M_B < -19 mag. The solid line shows a least-squares linear fit to the current sample $r_{\rm e}(z)/r_{\rm e}(0) = 1-0.26z$ ; the long-dashed line is the relation r(z)/r(0) = 1-0.27z derived by Bouwens & Silk (2002); the dotted and short-dashed lines give the relations $r_{\rm e}\sim H(z)^{-1}$ and $r_{\rm e} \sim H^{-2/3}(z)$ , respectively.
