AbstractWe investigate the rotation of dark matter halos identified in ΛCDM simulations. After removing halos that contain a significant amount of substructure, about 82% of the remaining halos were found to undergo coherent rotation over 5h−1 Gyr. The rotation speeds follow a log-normal distribution. The average rotation speed of a halo was 0.11h rads/Gyr. Less than half of the selected halos showed alignment between their rotation and minor axes. We found no correlation between halo properties, such as total mass, and the rotation speed.
