A Broad Search for Counterrotating Gas and Stars: Evidence for Mergers and Accretion (2001)

Abstract
We measure the frequency of bulk gas-stellar counterrotation in a sample of 67 galaxies drawn from the Nearby Field Galaxy Survey, a broadly representative survey of the local galaxy population down to We detect four counterrotators among 17 E/S0s with extended gas emission In M B D[15. (24 8 %).
