Changes in the slope of the radial surface brightness profiles of disc galaxies, or disc breaks, encode valuable information about the processes driving disc formation and growth. Until now, due to the resolution and depth required, statistical studies of break types have been limited mostly to the local Universe. We a...
Euclid Collaboration P. M. Sanchez-Alarcon, J. Román, S. Comer'on et al.· 0 citations
The Euclid mission has been designed to provide, as one of its main deliverables, information on the nature of the gravitational interaction, which determines the expansion of the Universe and the formation of structures. Thus, Euclid has the potential to test deviations from general relativity that will allow us to sh...

An efficient and accurate separation of unresolved point sources from extended objects, usually referred to as star–galaxy separation, is essential for the scientific exploitation of deep wide-field imaging surveys, particularly at faint magnitudes where morphological differences become subtle.
This paper presents a de...
