The SAMI Galaxy Survey: the link between angular momentum and optical morphology

We investigate the relationship between stellar and gas specific angular momentum j, stellar mass M$_*$ and optical morphology for a sample of 488 galaxies extracted from the Sydney-AAO Multi- object Integral field Galaxy Survey. We find that j, …

The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Toward a Unified Dynamical Scaling Relation for Galaxies of All Types

We take advantage of the first data from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field Galaxy Survey to investigate the relation between the kinematics of gas and stars, and stellar mass in a comprehensive sample of nearby galaxies. We find that all 235 …
