Notes. rs, vs,model, and vs,sim have the same meaning as in Table 2. Ndata: number of measurements for each shell; vs,eq(19): the mean of values derived from the approximative maximal LOS velocities given by Eq. (19) with its mean square deviation; vs,eq(22) − slope: the mean of values derived from the hybrid relation given by Eq. (22) with its mean square deviation (see also Fig. 15); vs,fit: a value derived by fitting a pair of vc and vs in the approximative LOSVD given by Eq. (15) (Sect. 5, point 2 and Fig. 13). The quantities with the superscript SS correspond to the subsample, where only measurements with two discernible inner peaks in the LOSVD are used.
