Column 1: galaxy name;  Col. 2
label identifying the galaxy light profile model (lc = linear with a flat  core in the inner region,
cS = core-S\'{e}rsic, cM= modified core model); Cols. 3--10: parameters of  the various profile models (see Sects. \ref{erosion} and \ref{data} for details), where $\eta$ is in
arcmin$^{-2}$ and $r_{\rm b}$ and $r_{\rm e}$ are in arcmin.
