Fig. 1.
Variation with Sérsic index of the different parameters of the analytical approximation of Emsellem & van de Ven (2008) for the deprojected Sérsic density profile (filled circles). The solid and dotted curves show the spline cubic and linear interpolations, respectively. At small n, the parameters vary abruptly and the interpolations (both linear and cubic) are therefore uncertain.
