The ATLAS(3D) project-VIII. Modelling the formation and evolution of fast and slow rotator early-type galaxies within lambda CDM

We propose a simple model for the origin of fast and slow rotator early-type galaxies (ETG) within the hierarchical Λcold dark matter (ΛCDM) scenario, that is based on the assumption that the mass fraction of stellar discs in ETGs is a proxy for the specific angular momentum expressed via λR.
