Masking regions from Fig. 1h overlaid as grey contours on light-weighted stellar kinematic (a) V, (b) h3, and population (c) age along with (d) metallicity maps of PGC 044931. White regions denote masked regions (e.g. due to foreground stars) or areas in which the spaxels did not reach the minimum continuum S/N threshold of 5. A distinctive metal-rich ‘X’ shape is present in the metallicity map. This feature has been seen in other galaxies (e.g. NGC 4710; Gonzalez et al. 2016) and is in agreement with simulations (e.g. Debattista et al. 2017; Fragkoudi et al. 2020).
