The growth of the central region by acquisition of counterrotating gas in star-forming galaxies.

The growth of the central region by acquisition of counterrotating gas in star-forming galaxies.

Galaxies grow through both internal and external processes. In about 10% of nearby red galaxies with little star formation, gas and stars are counter-rotating, demonstrating the importance of external gas acquisition in these galaxies. However, systematic studies of such phenomena in blue, star-form...
