Distributions of the effective radius Re of the bulge (or Sérsic) component (left), and he of the disk (or exponential) component (right) of all types of EFIGI galaxies with Inclination ≤ 2, as a function of the bulge-to-total ratio B/Tg in the g band, identified in Quilley & de Lapparent (2022) as a tracer of Hubble type. Both panels are color-coded with the Hubble type of the galaxy, with subplots corresponding late (spiral and Im) types on the left, and to early (E and S0) types on the right. The corresponding ODR fits are plotted in each panel. The indicative positions in B/Tg, Re and he for the Sd, Sdm, and Sm types are added in both panels (see text for details). For the Im types (added in the right panel), the effective radii from the single-Sérsic modeling are added at an arbitrary small B/Tg value (see text). These graphs show that for spiral types, Re increase strongly with B/Tg, whereas there is only a weak increase in he with B/Tg. S0 and E galaxies have the highest B/Tg values, but only some of them actually have the highest Re or he, with a tail of S0 toward lower values encompassing ∼1 dex for both their Re and he. The smallest S0 Re correspond to the smallest Re of early spirals (left panel), and the smallest S0 he correspond to the intermediate he between those of the smallest disks (Sm types) and of the Im galaxies (right panel).
