It had been expected that the number of galaxies rotating clockwise and counterclockwise would be roughly the same. While the reason for this imbalance is presently unclear, one hypothesis that ...

might have influenced the rotation dynamics of galaxies, creating the observed clockwise-counterclockwise asymmetry." "The discovery by the JWST that galaxies rotate in a preferred direction would ...

“Counterclockwise rotation” refers to a variant in which the transition is “early,” occurring at or before lead V 3, whereas “clockwise rotation” is a variant in which the transition ...
