Record completeness
Claims
Comparison with z=0 disk galaxies suggests that galaxies at z=1 grow inside-out, with little or no increase in mass within the inner 8 kpc, but a significant increase (approximately 300%) in the outer regions.
The assumption that the galaxy 'edge' can be consistently identified across different redshifts and that the derived age profiles accurately reflect the star formation history without significant contamination from dust or other effects. (Abstract, paragraph on profiles)
At z=1, disk galaxies exhibit U-shaped stellar age profiles with turnover at the edge, indicating inside-out growth with approximately 300% mass increase in outer regions since z=0.
