The Kinematic Bimodality: Efficient Feedback and Cold Gas Deficiency in Slow-rotating Galaxies

The bimodality in the stellar spin of low-redshift (massive) galaxies, ubiquitously existing at all star formation levels and in diverse environments, suggests that galaxies grow and quench through two diverged evolutionary pathways. For spheroid-dominated galaxies of slow stellar rotation, the age...
