Constraining the axis ratio and position angle of the stellar disc of AGC 114905. Left and middle show the r-band stellar emission without and with our mask, respectively. Both panels include two ellipses, one obtained through isophotal fitting (pink) and one through the M²HD method (purple). The black crosses represent the centre of the galaxy. Right: M²HD map. The grey marker highlights the minimum of the map, and the white contours represent 2, 4, 6, and 8 standard deviations. The parameters obtained through isophotal fitting (pink marker) are shown to be in 2σ agreement. Very high axis ratios (i.e. nearly face-on inclinations) are in significant tension with the data.
