Top: average tangential ellipticity of the full satellite galaxy sample versus projected satellite distance from the group BGG, obtained using satellite shape – BGG position pairs. Results shown for different weight function sizes used in the shape measurement process. The rwf indicates the size of the initial weight function and riso is the isophote of the galaxy. Bottom: amplitude of power-law fits with fixed exponent, to the average ellipticities for all, red and blue galaxies, for the different weight function sizes involved. Lines connecting the data points added for clarity.
