Example of mock line-of-sight intensity, velocity, and dispersion velocity maps of a stellar disk (from left to right, respectively). The N-body simulation of the barred spiral galaxy by Hunt et al. (2013) has been projected with an inclination of 55° and a major axis position angle of 315°, and a systemic velocity of 1000 km s− 1. The top row represents the high-resolution mock dataset (distance of 40 Mpc, spatial sampling of 1″), the bottom row the low-resolution case (distance of 65 Mpc, 3″ sampling, representative of the CALIFA resolution).
