Surface brightness profiles of the dynamically hot spheroid (defined by all orbits with λz < 0.5) and dynamically cold component (defined by all orbits with λz > 0.5) for 15 compact ETGs. Top panel: Galaxy names and half-light radius (in kpc) of their hot spheroids. The dash curve represents NGC 1282, with limited data coverage. Inset: the 2D surface brightness of the hot spheroid of one typical galaxy, NGC 1277.
