Caption: Figure 1.

Left column: initial (blue) and final (orange) spatial distribution of the disk stars in Run (C) projected onto the xy and xz planes. Right column: cumulative distribution of the scalar angular momentum (L) of disk stars normalized to an arbitrary unit: L0 = 300 pc km s−1. The upper panel shows the initial (thin blue) and final (thick orange) distribution in different runs. The lower panel shows the distribution snapped at different times in Run (C).
