ABSTRACT
We present near-infrared imaging of a sample of 57 relatively large, Northern spiral
galaxies with low inclination. After describing the selection criteria and some of the
basic properties of the sample, we give a detailed description of the data collection and
reduction procedures. The Ks λ = 2.2μm images cover most of the disk for all galaxies,
with a field of view of at least 4.2 arcmin. The spatial resolution is better than an
arcsec for most images. We fit bulge and exponential disk components to radial profiles
of the light distribution. We then derive the basic parameters of these components, as
well as the bulge/disk ratio, and explore correlations of these parameters with several
galaxy parameters.
Key words: galaxies: spiral – galaxies: structure – infrared: galaxies
1 INTRODUCTION
Near-infrared (NIR) imaging of galaxies is a better tracer
of the underlying stellar structure than optical imaging, for
two reasons. Firstly, the effects of extinction by dust in the
galaxy are much reduced (an order of magnitude from V to
K), and secondly, the NIR emission is a better tracer of the
older stellar populations, which contain most of the stellar
mass. The combined effect of these two factors is that NIR
emission is a more accurate tracer of the mass in galaxies.
