Caption: Figure 2.

The mock images of a tidally stripped sample in NewHorizon. Subpanels 1–7 show the time evolution of the compact system orbiting around the massive (M * ∼ 1010.7 M ) spiral galaxy. The stellar mass (blue solid line) and the half-mass radius (green dashed line) as a function of time are presented in the inset diagram. The seven vertical lines mark the seven snapshots in the main diagram.
