No preferred alignments of angular momentum vectors of galaxies in the SDSS supercluster S[202-001+0084]
Abstract
We present spatial orientation of angular momentum vectors of 3038 galaxies in the SDSS supercluster S[202-002+0084] having mean redshift 0.084. The selection effects in the database are removed using random simulation method. The observed distributions of angular momentum vectors of galaxies are compared with expected theoretical distribution using chi-square, auto-correlation and Fourier tests. No preferred alignments of angular momentum vectors of galaxies are noticed in the supercluster S[202-001+0084], supporting hierarchy model.
