Caption: Figure 3.

The spatial and kinematic separations between the gaseous dwarf galaxies and their hosts. Left: projected distance (dproj) and line-of-sight velocity separation (ΔVlos) are in physical units (Table A1); different symbols distinguish the H I data sources (Section 2). Right: the same quantities scaled by the host R200 and Vesc (Section 3.1). Blue curves show the point-mass escape velocity, with dashed lines denoting our satellite-unbound classification (Equation (5); taking RVRd = 1) and shaded regions showing the expected range under projection effects. Filled symbols in both panels highlight the “close” satellite candidates within the host projected R200.
