Posterior distribution of values of M 31’s radial and tangential velocity for the Monte Carlo samples generated from the prior on the magnitude of vtan from van der Marel et al. (2019) (purple). After compensating for the LMC perturbation, (Benisty et al. 2022) generates the corresponding vrad and vtan that used here as the modified effect of the LMC (green). The vrad is increased by [25, 30 km/s] and vrad is shifted to −75 ± 15 km/s.
