Correlating galaxy shapes and initial conditions: An observational study

Using data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey we study correlations between directions of galaxy angular momenta determined from images of spiral galaxies and various observables derived from the reconstructed initial conditions. We find an apparent systematic effect consistent with galaxy-orientatio...
