Fig. 9.

Profiles of M/L derived from stellar population analysis of the SAURON spectra combined over different aperture sizes between 0.5 and 25″. The two colors specify whether the MILES stellar templates were created based on a Salpeter IMF (α = 1.3) (blue) or a revised Kroupa IMF (red). The dashed line denotes the effective radius of the galaxy where we compare our measurements with measurements from McDermid 2015 as a consistency check. The discrepancy between the measurements (lower age and larger metallicity) arises because those authors capped their MILES library at 14 Gyr and thus, used a different stellar library.
