Mini-talks ? 3 fundamental elements of quantitative morphology Short overview of GIM2D tasks Galaxy profile fitting with GIM2D GIM2D analysis pipeline Multiple bandpasses and multiple images fitting Simulations Selection functions Wish lists and parting thoughts
Three Fundamental Elements
Measurements! (duh.) Simulations Þ Systematic, random errors, and asymmetries Þ Number of simulations should be large!!! Þ Should cover as wide a range of structural as possible Þ Should be analyzed exactly the same way as real galaxies Selection function Þ What objects are you looking at ?
