From left to right: distribution in the ELz space of all stars (leftmost panel), in-situ stars (middle panel), and accreted stars (rightmost panel). From top to bottom: different rows show the cases of a 1 × (1:10), 2 × (1:10), and 4 × (1:10) merger, respectively. All the distributions are shown at the final time of the simulation, t = 5 Gyr. In all the plots, colors code the stellar density in logarithmic scale, as indicated by the color bar.
