Face-on (top row) and edge-on (bottom row) stellar density maps for three galaxies representing the three disk thickness categories used in this study: a thinner disk (ID: 560751, left), an intermediate thickness disk (ID: 575356, center), and a thicker disk (ID: 419618, right). The vertical extent of each disk becomes progressively larger from left to right in the edge-on views, illustrating the morphological differences captured by the scale-height-to-length ratio hz,thick/hd.
