Scale heights of the merger-induced thick disk and stellar excess as function of radial distance in units of disk scale length, r/r_d, after a single or two consecutive minor mergers. We show single mergers with a mass ratio of 10:1 and 20:1, and 2  ×  10:1 and 2  ×  20:1 consecutive merger events. In the consecutive merger cases the satellites are either accreted from the same direction (multi-A) or from different directions (multi-B).
