MegaMorph -- multi-wavelength measurement of galaxy structure: Sérsic profile fits to galaxies near and far

We demonstrate a new multi-wavelength technique for two-dimensional parametric modelling of galaxy surface-brightness profiles, which we have incorporated into the widely used software GALFIT. Our new method, named GALFITM, extends GALFIT3's current single-band fitting process by simultaneously...
