The ATLAS(3D) project - XVII. Linking photometric and kinematic signatures of stellar discs in early-type galaxies

We analyse the morphological structures in galaxies of the ATLAS3D sample by fitting a single Sérsic profile and decomposing all non-barred objects (180 of 260 objects) in two components parametrized by an exponential and a general Sérsic function. The aim of this analysis is to look for signatures...
