Enclosed stellar mass (M) and dynamical mass (Mdyn; based on the [C I](1–0) or CO(2–1) dynamics) around the center of NGC 7469. The M values are returned from the MGE model (see details in D. Nguyen et al. 2020, in preparation) by using the high-resolution HST WFC3/UVIS F547M and ACS/WFC F814W maps with the color–M/LV relation (Bell & de Jong 2001). The region masked out for the M measurement is shaded (r ≤ 0.″06). Our tentative fit for the Mdyn profile by using a fifth-order polynomial function is shown by the dashed line.
