Numerical Simulations of Galaxy Formation: Angular Momentum Distribution and Phase Space Structure of Galactic Halos

Within the past decade, the CDM model has emerged as a standard paradigm of structure formation. While it has been very successful in explaining the structure of the Universe on large scales, on smaller (galactic) scales problems have surfaced. In this thesis, we investigate several of these...
