The Nuker Two-Power Law Profile

Nuker fits to the central 10 arcsec of two elliptical galaxies. Note that the inner slopes are quite different ( = 0.06 and 0.55) and the rate of break change is also quite different ( = 1.5 and 0.7) for the two galaxies, NGC 1399 (a "core" galaxy) and NGC 596 (A "Power Law galaxy).
