| contents | Utilizing ALFALFA HI data, we investigate the relationship between specific star formation rate (sSFR) and halo spin across various star-forming galaxies. Our analysis reveals weak yet statistically significant positive correlation between sSFR and halo spin, irrespective of the galactic environment. This trend suggests that galaxies with higher spin parameters tend to host dynamically colder, gas-rich disks, sustaining elevated gas surface densities and prolonged star formation. These findings align with theoretical expectations of angular momentum-regulated gas accretion but highlight discrepancies with cosmological simulations, underscoring unresolved challenges in modeling baryonic feedback and star formation efficiency. |
