Color profiles of disk galaxies at z = 1–3 observed with JWST: Implications for outer-disk formation histories

Fig. 1.

Illustration of the calculation of color profiles. The upper panels display the F356W- and F115W-band images of the CEERS galaxy at $RA = 215 \overset{°}{.} 0922699$ $\mathrm{RA}=215{{\overset{\circ}{.}}}0922699$ and $Dec = 52 \overset{°}{.} 9221344$ $\mathrm{Dec}=52{{\overset{\circ}{.}}}9221344$ . The dashed ellipse marks the break location. The middle panel shows the extracted deconvolved surface-brightness profiles for F115W band, marked in blue, and for F356W band, marked in red. The calculated color profile, exhibiting a clear U-shape, is shown in the bottom panel.
