[Phys-L] As the universe turns

[Larry Smith <Larry.Smith@snow.edu>]

Does the universe (as a whole) spin? What would that even mean, other than violating isotropy?

Thanks,
Larry

P.S. Apparently there is controversy about whether there is an observed bias in the direction of spin of surveyed spiral galaxies; if it were so and general, what would that imply about non-zero angular momentum for the whole universe?
