cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiesinfrared-sourcesgalaxy-classification-systemsWe present results of an analysis of the J, H, and Ks Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) images of 139 spiral edge-on galaxies selected from the Revised Flat Galaxies Catalog. The basic structural parameters scale length (h), scale height (z_0_), and central surface brightness of the stellar disks ({mu}_0_) are determined for all selected galaxies in the near-infrared (NIR) bands. The mean relative ratios of the scale heights of the thin stellar disks in the J:H:Ks bands are 1.16:1.08:1.00, respectively. Comparing the scale heights obtained from the NIR bands for the same objects, we estimate the scale heights of the thin stellar disks corrected for the internal extinction. We find that the extinction-corrected scale height is, on average, 11% smaller than that in the K band. Using the extinction-corrected structural parameters, we find that the dark-to-luminous mass ratio is, on average, 1.3 for the galaxies in our sample within the framework of a simplified galactic model. The relative thicknesses of the stellar disks z_0_/h correlates with their face-on central surface brightnesses obtained from the 2MASS images. We also find that the scale height of the stellar disks shows no systematic growth with radius in most of our galaxies.2009ApJ...702.1567Bhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/702/1567CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toVII/233 : The 2MASS Extended sources (IPAC/UMass, 2003-2006)VII/219 : Revised Flat Galaxy Catalogue (RFGC) (Karachentsev+, 1999)J/A+A/389/795 : Vertical structure of edge-on galaxies (Bizyaev+, 2002)J/other/BSAO/50.5 : Velocities of RFGC galaxies (Karachentsev+, 2000)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/702/1567https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/702/1567http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/702/1567https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/702/1567https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/702/1567http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/702/1567GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/ApJ/702/1567/table1 (The structural parameters of the galaxies)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/702/1567/table1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/702/1567/table1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/702/1567/table1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true6.011820816.48638890.0055555555555555566/137 536 727 896 953 2218 2259 2562 3120 3583 3900 4360 4420 4460 4813 5762 6050 6178 6270 6560 6998 7219 7330 7584 7681 7898 7907 8589 10282 10408 10409 10544 10592 10621 10847 10888 10930 11000 11375 11379 11450 11592 12031 13387 13514 13845 14144 14473 15218 16083 16672 17795 17888 18054 18327 18931 19572 19843 19959 21019 22361 22655 23066 24053 24612 24844 24921 24952 25203 25603 25632 25635 25766 25771 25784 26265 26301 26302 27246 27588 27718 27725 27763 27857 28091 28141 28228 28304 30072 30073 31218 31321 31628 31798 32059 32228 33435 34326 36338 36439 36707 37421 37624 38466 38477 38500 38501 38589 38822 38836 38946 39133 39201 39830 40355 40531 40536 40812 41188 41444 41949 43126 43302 43517 43585 43867 43982 44221 44639 45136 45462 45487 46363 46409 46520 46688 47031 47173 49086https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJ/702/1567?format=asciiOpticalInfrareddefaultJ/ApJ/702/1567/table1The structural parameters of the galaxiesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
