Relation between the alignment and the mass of the halo in which the central galaxies of the sample are located. The left, centre, and right panels present this relation for angles θint, θsat, and θch respectively. In all panels, solid lines represent the major axis, while dotted lines represent the minor axis. Additionally, where possible, measurements based solely on stellar information are indicated in yellow. Error bars were calculated using the standard deviation of the mean. The left panel illustrates the direction of increasing alignment. This feature is consistent across all panels displaying alignments in this figure and the subsequent ones.
