Radial velocity of Tri II members vs. their distances from the center of the galaxy. The dashed line shows the mean velocity. The shaded regions show the velocity dispersions in different regions of the galaxy published by M16. The mean velocity of star 46, the binary, is indicated by a red circle. Our measurements do not show evidence for a velocity dispersion changing with radius.
