This is an erratum regarding the miscalculated values of the nuclear discs’ stellar masses published in de Sá-Freitas et al. (2023, 2025), which were calculated by integrating the ‘isolated’ star formation histories of the nuclear discs. However, after publication, we noticed an erroneous conversion of units in one step, which is reflected in values that are systematically around three times smaller than the updated ones. We present here the updated values of the nuclear discs’ stellar masses in Table 1 (original Table 3), and the updated result of the nuclear disc stellar masses as a function of bar age (Figure 1, original Figure 9). We would like to highlight that the results from de Sá-Freitas et al. (2025) are qualitatively unchanged (r ∼ 0.7 and p-value ∼ 0.007), and hence the discussion and conclusions remain unaltered. Finally, we would like to clarify that Gadotti & de Sá-Freitas (2025) already used the updated values in their analysis of nuclear disc scaling relations.
Updated nuclear disc masses.

Fig. 1. Updated nuclear disc mass buildup. In this plot, we present the updated result from de Sá-Freitas et al. (2025) of the nuclear disc mass normalized by the galaxy mass for different bar ages, colour-coding each point according to its ΣSFR, which increases towards blue colours (original Figure 9). The updated result is qualitatevely the same, as the bars age, the nuclear discs gradually become less star-forming and their masses increase (updated correlation coefficient 0.7 ± 2 × 10−3 and p-value = 7 × 10−3 ± 8 × 10−4). |
