Examples of our break classification scheme. We show here galaxies of Type 0 (left), Type I (middle), and a Type IId break (right, innermost break). These are reclassifications of galaxies with Type III breaks identified by L16. Bold text indicates the break being demonstrated, and the original break classifications are provided in the third row panels. Ellipses are as in Fig. 1. Third row: 3.6 μm surface brightness profile (AB magnitudes) vs. radius. The inset in the left panel shows the residuals to a linear fit (shown as the dashed blue line) to the surface brightness profile beyond the break radius, demonstrating its nonexponential nature. Fourth row: local slope of the surface brightness profile vs. radius. Fifth row: galaxy’s on-sky axial ratio vs. radius. Vertical lines and shaded regions are as in Fig. 1. See the text for specific details on each galaxy’s break classification.
