Nuclear properties of a sample of nearby spiral galaxies from Hubble Space Telescope STIS imaging

We present surface photometry for the central regions of a sample of 48 spiral galaxies (mostly unbarred and barred of type Sbc or Sc) observed with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. Surface brightness profiles (SBPs) were derived and modeled with a Nuker...
