Abstract

Photometric deprojection is used to determine the stellar-disk and bulge parameters for several edge-on galaxies from the FGC catalog. The assumption that the galaxies of our sample belonging to the fourth (i.e., lowest) surface-brightness class in the FGC are edge-on, low-surface-brightness (LSB) galaxies is considered.
