Spatial distribution and velocities of wandering SMBHs. Stellar images of three galaxies from side-on (left) and face-on (right) orientations relative to the galactic disk. Galaxies were chosen from our parent sample of 26 galaxies in MW-mass halos to be most similar to the MW in terms of having a disk-dominated morphology and lacking any major (1:4 or larger) mergers since z = 0.75. Each pixel is colored based on emission in the U (blue), V (green), and J (red) bands, assuming a Kroupa initial mass function (IMF). Circles indicate position of the SMBHs and the arrows the direction and magnitude of their velocity relative to their galactic center. The wandering SMBHs have orbits with random inclination and eccentricity and are generally not in the galactic disk.
