摘要
The specific angular momenta (j(t)) of stars, baryons as a whole and dark matter halos contain clues of vital importance about how galaxies form and evolve. Using a sample of 70 spiral galaxies, we perform a preliminary analysis of j(t), and introduce a new quantity, e.g., areal density of angular momentum (ADAM) (j(t) M-?/(2R(d))(2)) as an indication for the existence of jet(s) in spiral galaxies. The percentage of spiral galaxies having jet(s) shows a strong correlation with ADAM, although the present sample is incomplete.
