The global warming of group satellite galaxies
  Recent studies adopting $\lambda_{\rm Re}$, a proxy for specific angular
momentum, have highlighted how early-type galaxies (ETGs) are composed of two
kinematic classes for which distinct formation mechanisms can be inferred. With
upcoming surveys expected to obtain $\lambda_{\rm Re}$ from a broad range of
environments (e.g. SAMI, MaNGA), we investigate in this numerical study how the
$\lambda_{\rm Re}$-$\epsilon_{\rm e}$ distribution of fast-rotating dwarf
satellite galaxies reflects their evolutionary state. By combining N-body/SPH
simulations of progenitor disc galaxies (stellar mass $\simeq$10$^{\rm 9}$
M$_{\odot}$), their cosmologically-motivated sub-halo infall history and a
characteristic group orbit/potential, we demonstrate the evolution of a
satellite ETG population driven by tidal interactions (e.g. harassment). As a
general result, these satellites remain intrinsically fast-rotating oblate
stellar systems since their infall as early as $z=2$; mis-identifications as
slow rotators often arise due to a bar/spiral lifecycle which plays an integral
role in their evolution. Despite the idealistic nature of its construction, our
mock $\lambda_{\rm Re}$-$\epsilon_{\rm e}$ distribution at $z<0.1$ reproduces
its observational counterpart from the ATLAS$^{\rm 3D}$/SAURON projects. We
predict therefore how the observed $\lambda_{\rm Re}$-$\epsilon_{\rm e}$
distribution of a group evolves according to these ensemble tidal interactions.
