Many clues about the galaxy assembly process lurk in the faint outer regions of galaxies. The low surface brightnesses of these parts pose a significant challenge for studies of diffuse light, and few robust constraints on galaxy formation models have been derived to date from this technique. Our group has pioneered the use of extremely wide-area star counts to quantitatively address the large-...
