Michael Fall, Annalisa Pillepich, Marc Huertas-Company | Summary: We use the TNG100 simulation of the IllustrisTNG project to investigate the stellar specific angular momenta ($j_{ast}$) of $sim$12~000 central galaxies at $z=0$ in a full cosmological context, with stellar masses ($M_{ast}$) ranging from […]
