On the relationship between stellar rotation and radius in young clusters

We examine the early angular momentum history of stars in young clusters. We reported based on 197 photometric periods in the Orion Flanking Fields and 83 photometric periods in the NGC 2264, that PMS stars apparently do not conserve stellar angular momentum as they evolve down their connective tracks, but instead evolve at nearly constant angular velocity.

Spiral ARMS in Galaxies with Counter-Rotating Stellar Disks

Spectroscopic observations by Rubin and other indicate that the S type galaxies NGC 4550, NGC 7217, and NGC 4138 have two-way disks with a substantial portion of the stellar disk orbiting opposite the direction of the rest...However, in 1978, Zang and Hohl found via simulations that one-fold instabilities were enhanced in a two-way disk with no halo...Using a self-gravitating disk with a flat rotation curve, we redo Zang and Hohl's isolated simulations but with more particles plus varying amounts of an inert halo component.
