Similar Signatures of Coplanar Gas Inflow and Disk Warps in Galactic Gas Kinematic Maps

Hydrodynamic simulations suggest that galactic gas disks form when coplanar gas spirals into the inner regions of the disk. We recently presented a simple modified accretion disk model of viscous galactic disks in which star formation is fed by a radial flow of gas. However, little observational evi...
