Late-type low surface brightness galaxies (LSBs) are faint disk galaxies with central maximum stellar surface densities below 100 Msun/pc^2. The currently favored scenario for their origin is that LSBs have formed in fast-rotating halos with large angular momenta. We present the first numerical evidence for this scenario using a suite of self-consistent hydrodynamic simulations of a 2.3e11 Msun galactic halo, in which we investigate the correlations between the disk stellar/gas surface densities and the spin parameter of its host halo. A clear anti-correlation between the surface densities and the halo spin parameter, lambda, is found. That is, as the halo spin parameter increases, the disk cutoff radius at which the stellar surface density drops below 0.1 Msun/pc^2 monotonically increases, while the average stellar surface density of the disk within that radius decreases. The ratio of the average stellar surface density for the case of lambda=0.03 to that for the case of lambda=0.14 reaches more than 15. We demonstrate that the result is robust against variations in the baryon fraction, confirming that the angular momentum of the host halo is an important driver for the formation of LSBs.
The correlation between the spins of dark matter halos and the large-scale structure (LSS) has been studied in great detail over a large redshift range, while investigations of galaxies are still incomplete. Motivated by this point, we use the state-
Star-forming galaxies display a close relation among stellar mass, metallicity and star-formation rate (or molecular-gas mass). This is known as the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR) (or molecular-gas FMR), and it has a profound implication on m
The similarity between the distributions of spins for galaxies ($lambda_{rm g}$) and for dark-matter haloes ($lambda_{rm h}$), indicated both by simulations and observations, is naively interpreted as a one-to-one correlation between the spins of a g
SubHalo Abundance Matching (SHAM) assumes that one (sub)halo property, such as mass Mvir or peak circular velocity Vpeak, determines properties of the galaxy hosted in each (sub)halo such as its luminosity or stellar mass. This assumption implies tha
Using a new, high-resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulation of a Milky Way-type (MW-type) galaxy, we explore how a merger-rich assembly history affects the mass budget of the central supermassive black hole (SMBH). We examine a MW-mass halo at
