Fig. 11
Mean ellipticity components of spectroscopic plus red sequence satellite galaxies
in a frame rotated by the position angle of the BCG, probing the alignment of
satellites with the cluster BCG. BCG position angles are measured with GALFIT, while
the shapes of satellite galaxies are measured with KSB. Red circles show alignments
with respect to the major (
) and minor
(
) axes of the BCG, while blue crosses
show alignments at 45°
rotations.
