Stellar angular momentum can be controlled from cosmological initial conditions

Stellar angular momentum can be controlled from cosmological initial conditions

ABSTRACT The angular momentum of galaxies controls the kinematics of their stars, which in turn drives observable quantities such as the apparent radius, the bulge fraction, and the alignment with other nearby structures. To show how angular momentum of galaxies is determined, we build high (35 pc) resolution numerical experiments …
