This chapter discusses the spin-transfer effect, which is described as the transfer of the spin angular momentum between the conduction electrons and the magnetization of the ferromagnet that occurs due to the conservation of the spin angular momentum. L. Berger, who introduced the concept in 1984, considered the exchange interaction between the conduction electron and the localized magnetic moment, and predicted that a magnetic domain wall can be moved by flowing the spin current. The spin-transfer effect was brought into the limelight by the progress in microfabrication techniques and the discovery of the giant magnetoresistance effect in magnetic multilayers. Berger, at the same time, separately studied the spin-transfer torque in a system similar to Slonczewski’s magnetic multilayered system and predicted spontaneous magnetization precession.

We derive the radial distribution of the specific angular momentum j=J/M, for the gas in M31, M51 and the galaxy, objects for which well observed unsmoothed rotation curves are available in the literature. We find the specific angular momentum to be anti-correlated with the present stellar formation rate, i.e. minima of spin angular momentum correspond to the loci of spiral arms. We find that the stellar formation rate is an inverse function of j. We derive new values of Oort's A constant for the arm and interarm regions in the solar neighborhood.
