Analysis of the Structural Properties of the Low Surface Brightness Stellar Host in a Sample of Blue Compact Galaxies
Based on the Sérsic parameters, obtained by fitting pixel to pixel their deep optical galaxy images, the structural properties of the underlying stellar host of a sample of 20 star-forming dwarf galaxies have been analyzed. Our 2D technique has been improved to derive reliable Sérsic models, such as the proper isolation of the starburst emission
