Upper panel: black: combined, corrected surface density data for stars in the magnitude interval 12.5 ≤ Ks ≤ 16 from our deep plus wide field image, complemented at large radii by scaled data from Fritz et al. (2016). The orange line is a model for the emission from the nuclear disc (model 5 in Table 2 of Schödel et al. 2014a) that is subtracted from the black data points, resulting in the blue data points. The red line is a Nuker model fit (ID 1 in Table 5). The dash-dotted purple line is a Nuker model fit with γ = 1.0 fixed (ID 7 in Table 5). Lower panel: like upper panel, but Nuker fit from ID 4 in Table 5.
