:Abstract: Galaxy mergers and interactions are expected to play a signicant role leading to offsets between gas and stellar motions in galaxies. Herein we crossmatch galaxies in MaNGA MPL-8 with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) Legacy Surveys and identify 538 galaxies with merging/interacting features to investigate their position angle offsets (dPA) between gas and stellar rotation. We find that there is a much higher merging/interacting fraction in misaligned galaxies (30< dPA <150) than that in co-rotators (dPA < 30). This result corroborates that merging/interacting is one of the sources to produce misaligned galaxies and recent merging events can contribute to maximum 40% of such misalignment. Furthermore, the marginal merging/interacting fraction in star-forming (SF) counter-rotators (dPA >150) indicates the negligible role of merging in the origin of SF counter-rotators. In addition, the slightly smaller merging/interacting fraction in non star-forming (non-SF) counter-rotators (0.140) than that in non-SF misaligned galaxies (0.220) agrees with that counter-rotating is a stable state, where tidal features disappear. Finally, the ratio of co-rotators to counter-rotators in non-SF merging/interacting galaxies is about 8:1, much larger than the prediction from the isotropic merging (1:1), which supports the speculation that gas and stars prefer to be aligned during merging, as the orbital angular momentum transfers to gas and stellar spin. |
