Accretion with heating, cooling, turbulence (Ma ~ 0.35), and erot = 0.3: mass PDF per bin of specific angular momentum lz, for the cold phase (the hot phase has PDF analogous to Fig. 11, top). After three rapid Ṁ• bursts, the PDF narrows on average from 20 Myr (solid) to 27 Myr (dashed) due to major collisions canceling positive and negative lz. The action of collisions is periodically contrasted by fresh condensation, favoring a broader distribution.
