Width of the stellar trace. Top panels: F814W image of the object and NUV image of IC5249. Middle panel: normalized profiles in counts along the vertical direction (along z in the top panels). The dashed lines show sech2(z/z0) fits to these vertical cuts (see detailed description in Sect. 3). Bottom panel: histogram of scale heights for edge-on galaxies from Bizyaev et al. (2014). The vertical colored lines indicate the values of the scale heights from the fit for the object (orange) and IC 5249 (blue).
