Galaxy Zoo: A correlation between coherence of galaxy spin chirality and star formation efficiency
We report on the finding of a correlation between galaxies' past star formation activity and the degree to which neighbouring galaxies rotation axes are aligned. This is obtained by cross-correlating star formation histories, derived with MOPED, and spin direction (chirality), as determined by...
