Fig. A.2

image

Left panel: PACS 160 μm radial surface brightness profile of NGC 3353 (Haro 3); open (blue) circles give the profile obtained from averaging the image over fixed-position-angle ellipses, and filled (red) squares the analogous profile obtained from the first derivative of the photometric growth curve. As in Fig. A.1, the dashed curves show the exponential convolved with the PACS 160 μm beam (lower), and the upper the exponential without convolution; the best-fit scale length is 5.̋0. Right panel: PACS 160 μm growth curve centered on the brightness peak. The left-most dotted vertical line gives the PACS beam radius (~5.̋5) and the right-most one the optical radius of NGC 3353 taken from NED (36′′). The solid grey curve corresponds to the best-fit exponential integral as described in the text; in the case of NGC 3353, the growth-curve best fit scalelength is slightly different from the radial profile one and we have adopted the growth-curve value for beam corrections.
