Abstract: We derive the stellar-to-halo specific angular momentum relation (SHSAMR) of galaxies at z = 0 by combining (i) the standard Acold dark matter tidal torque theory, (ii) the observed relation between stellar mass and specific… read more here.

Abstract: It is pointed out that MOND defines a fiducial specific angular momentum (SAM) for a galaxy of total (baryonic) mass M: jM(M) ≡ M(G/a0) ≈ 383(M/10M ) kpc km s−1. It plays important roles in… read more here.
