Panel (a): sSFR-M★ plane displaying all symmetric galaxies (Iasym = 0.05) in our sample, including centrals and satellites. Panels (b) and (c): Galaxies with kinematic asymmetries in the stellar component (b) and gaseous component (c). Panel (d): Galaxies with asymmetries in both maps. Panels (e) and (f): Galaxies with asymmetries solely in stars (e) and gas (f). To guide the eye, we show the corresponding PDFs in the lower left corner of each panel. We also show a dashed red line separating quiescent and star-forming galaxies. Following our selection criteria, only galaxies with at least 90% of valid spaxels (spaxels with S/N★,gas > 5) are included. The absence of asymmetric galaxies in the satellite region of the (s)SFR–M★ plane (see also Fig. 1) strongly suggests that the mechanism suppressing star formation in our sample does not significantly impact the kinematic structure of the galaxy.
