I review the theory of angular momentum acquisition of galaxies by tidal torquing, the resulting angular momentum distribution and the angular momentum correlation function, and discuss the implications of angular momentum alignments for weak lensing measurements. Starting from linear models for tidal torquing, I summarize perturbative approaches and the results from n-body simulations of cosmic structure formation. Then I discuss the validity of decompositions of the tidal shear and inertia fields, the effects of angular momentum biasing, the applicability of parametrized angular momentum correlation models and the consequences of angular momentum correlations for shape alignments. I compile the results of observations of shape alignments in recent galaxy surveys as well as in n-body simulations. Finally, I review the contamination of weak lensing surveys by spin-induced shape alignments and methods for suppressing this contamination.

An experiment of 22 Mg and 20 Ne beams bombarding on a 12 C target at an energy of 60~70 A MeV has been performed at the RIKEN projectile fragment separator (RIPS) in the RIKEN Ring Cyclotron Facility to study the two-proton correlated emission from 22 Mg and 20 Ne excited states. The two-protons momentum correlation functions have been obtained for 22 Mg and 20 Ne , respectively. The trajectories of the 22 Mg decayed products (20 Ne + p + p ) were also measured to get the angular correlations between the two protons in Center of Mass of decaying system by relativistic-kinematics reconstruction. The results exhibit that 22 Mg has the features of 2 He cluster decay mechanism.

The ν3 infrared band of CH4 has been measured in liquid solutions in SF6 and CCl4 at several temperatures, and in high pressure gas mixtures with Ar at several pressures. The band profiles were compared with those computed using the semi-classical extended rotational diffusion models for molecular rotation in fluids, and values of the angular momentum correlation time, τ, determined. The density and temperature dependence of τ was in accord with the interpretation of τ−1 as a collision frequency. The mean square torques were obtained from the fourth moments of spectral contours.
