We use the Galaxy Morphology Posterior Estimation Network (GaMPEN) to estimate posterior distributions (i.e., values and uncertainties) for the bulge-to-total light ratio, effective radius, and flux of 8 million galaxies in Hyper Suprime-Cam (HSC) Wide survey. We determine the structural parameters in the g, r, and i-bands of HSC and include galaxies with z<0.75 and m<23. GaMPEN had been used previously to estimate structural parameters using imaging at single wavelength bands. With this work, we demonstrate that GaMPEN can be effectively used to perform a multi-wavelength structural parameter analysis. We are currently using this catalog to study the variation of star formation in bulges and disks across the wide variety of environments included in HSC-Wide. In the summer of 2025, we will be publicly releasing our entire catalog of multi-wavelength structural parameters. |
