PDF of cos χ1, the cosine of the angle between the minor axis of the satellite and its position vector for 0.3 < z < 0.8 for different radius (left panel), satellite colour (middle panel) and mixed (right panel). Satellites align their minor axis with that of the central galaxy as they reach the inner regions of the halo.
