title = "SDSS-IV MaNGA: Probing the Kinematic Morphology-Density Relation of Early-type Galaxies with MaNGA",
abstract = "The kinematic morphologydensity relation for early-type galaxies posits that those galaxies with low angular momentum are preferentially found in the highest-density regions of the universe. We use a large sample of galaxy groups with halo masses 1012.5 halo <10 14.5 h-1 M⊙ observed with the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at APO (MaNGA) survey to examine whether there is a correlation between local environment and rotational support that is independent of stellar mass. We find no compelling evidence for a relationship between the angular momentum content of early-type galaxies and either local overdensity or radial position within the group at fixed stellar mass.",
