(a) Combined HST plus ground‐based H‐band surface brightness profile of NGC 5443 (Sb), with PSF‐convolved Sérsic bulge and exponential disk components (solid lines). The residuals (data minus model) are shown in the lower panel. (b) Same surface brightness profile fitted with a PSF‐convolved Sérsic law, an exponential disk, plus a central PS (dashed line). Residuals are shown in the lower panel.
