Abstract

Type-III S0 galaxies present tight scaling relations between their surface brightness photometric and structural parameters. Several evolutionary models have been proposed for the formation of Type-III S0 galaxies but the observations of are usually limited to the local Universe. We study the evolution of the photometric and structural scaling relations found between the parameters of the surface brightness profiles in the rest-frame R-band of Type-III S0 galaxies with z and the possible differences between the rest-frame (B-R) colours of the inner and outer disc profiles. We make use of a sample of 14 Type-III E/S0--S0 galaxies at 0.2<br />Comment: Accepted for publishing in Astronomy & Astrophysics. 28 pages, 27 figures. Language editor corrections applied
