VST g-band profile of PGC007748 (top left), PGC015524 (top right), and PGC049940 (bottom) in linear scale, fit with a three-component model motivated by the predictions of theoretical simulations (see Spavone et al. (2017)). The bottom panels in each plot show the Δ rms scatter, obtained from the difference between the observed profiles (O) and the sum of the components from each fit (C). The dashed lines in all the panels indicate the galaxy cores.
