Flow streamlines seeded within the density unity contour of the Graziani et al. (2019) model. Flow lines proceed from seed position to one of three accumulation points associated with the Shapley concentration, the Perseus−Pisces filament, and the Great Attractor, respectively. Flow lines associated with seeds along most of the South Pole Wall proceed to the Shapley concentration. There is a divergence between flows toward Shapley and flows toward Perseus−Pisces in the region of the Funnel indicated by an arrow. Details of the flow lines are best appreciated by opening the interactive model on Sketchfab (https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/0754e27c1075455cae090f1038d3cfbc) and in the online journal.
