Cumulative mass growth for the inner 0.5 HLR (upper panel), between 1 and 1.5 HLR (middle panel), and the central 2 HLR (bottom panel). The uncertainties are shaded in light colours, calculated as the dispersion in the profiles due to ±0.1 HLR variations in the radial distance in the 0–0.5 HLR and 1–1.5 HLR regions, and ±0.5 HLR for the global 0–2 HLR region. The merger galaxies are colour coded, and they are compared with the results obtained for Sbc (black line) and Sc (dashed-black line) galaxies.
