Gas-rich satellites today are typically late infallers. We plot the probability distribution functions (PDFs) of the infall times of all (black), gas-poor M gas sat < 10 9 M $ M_{\mathrm{gas}}^{\mathrm{sat}} < 10^{9}\,M_\odot $ (red), and gas-rich M gas sat > 10 9 M $ M_{\mathrm{gas}}^{\mathrm{sat}} > 10^{9}\,M_\odot $ (blue) TNG-Cluster satellites at a fixed host halo M 200 c host 10 15 M $ M_{\mathrm{200c}}^{\mathrm{host}}\sim 10^{15}\,M_\odot $ and satellite stellar M sat 10 11 M $ M_{\star}^{\mathrm{sat}}\sim 10^{11}\,M_\odot $ mass. We mark the medians and errors of the distributions as hashes on the top x-axis. The infall time is the first infall into any host, regardless if the galaxy has been preprocessed or not. At a fixed host halo and satellite stellar mass, the infall time is the primary driver determining whether satellites remain gas-rich or gas-poor today: more recent infallers are more likely to retain large gas reservoirs.
