PDF of νg1 = cos αg1, the cosine of the angle between the minor axis of the central galaxy and the direction of the nearest filament, for three subsets of low-mass centrals (109 < Mg < 1010.25 M⊙, upper threshold corresponds to the lower limit for the galactic plane orientation transition mass as estimated in Dubois et al. 2014) depending on the distance of their closest satellite: Rgs < 0.5 Rvir, 0.5 Rvir < Rgs < Rvir and Rgs > Rvir. The presence of a close satellite impacts the orientation of the central spin and damps its tendency to align to the nearest filament. The closer the satellite, the stronger the effect.
