β(r) profile. The dark blue solid and dashed lines are the β profile and uncertainties of the minimum ΔG model. The heuristic β(r) of NGC 4374 from a Jean analysis is shown in black solid line (Napolitano et al. 2011), and the gray dashes are the modeled β profile from Kronawitter et al. (2000). The filled square with 1σ error bars is the anisotropy value derived from direct kurtosis inferences (Napolitano et al. 2011).
