Distributions of the effective radius Re of the bulge (or Sérsic) component (left) and he of the disk (or exponential) component (right) from the bulge and disk decomposition of all EFIGI galaxies with Inclination ≤ 2, as a function of Hubble Type. The black dashed lines represent the geometric mean value for each Hubble type, and the vertical bars the estimated uncertainties on this mean (see Sect. 4.7.1 for details). In the left panel points are color-coded with the bulge-to-total ratio in the g band B/Tg, except for the gray dots, corresponding to the single-Sérsic profile modeling. In the right panel, Im sizes are derived from their single-Sérsic profile modeling, and the points are color-coded with the EFIGI Visible Dust attribute, which suggests that the lower radii measured for Sb galaxies compared to adjacent types are likely due to strong dust extinction.
