Caption: Figure A1.

Average LOS velocity map in the inner 4 pc for the simulation taken at 200 Myr, assuming (i) no NC rotation, (ii) NC and former SC members rotate, (iii) only NC stars rotate, and (iv) the NC motion is retrograde compared to the motion of former SC members. Contour lines identify the loci of regions characterized by the same LOS velocity. As in Figure 2, the contours are limited to [−20, −10, 10, 20] km s−1 for cases with no NC rotation and [−40, −30, 30, 40] km s−1 otherwise.
