Abundant molecular gas in the intergalactic medium of Stephan's Quintet
(2002-11)
Stephan's Quintet (SQ) is a system consisting of at least four interacting galaxies which is well known for its complex dynamical and star formation history. It possesses a rich intergalactic medium (IGM), where hydrogen ...
HI Observations of Isolated Triple Galaxies.
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2002)
We present preliminary results from Effelsberg 100-m HI observations of a sample of 27 Triple Galaxies selected from the Karachentseva Catalogue of Isolated Triplets. These observations were complemented with optical CCD ...
Bloated Dwarfs: The Thickness of the HI Disks in Irregular Galaxies
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2002)
Somewhat counterintuitively, the gas disks of (dwarf) irregular galaxies, such as the LMC, are thicker than those of normal disk galaxies, both in relative as well as in absolute terms. In retrospect, this is easily ...
Damped Lyman-alpha Absorption from the Nearby Low Surface Brightness Galaxy SBS 1543+593: a Summary
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2002)
Aperture Synthesis Spectral Line Imaging: Exploring the Third Dimension (Invited Talk)
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2002)
Radio astronomers are in a privileged position as compared to optical and near-IR observers because almost from the beginning of radioastronomical observations it proved possible to obtain spectral information at velocity ...
H I and CO Emission in Blue Compact Dwarfs: Haro 2 and Haro 4/26
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 2002)
We present VLA HI imaging of two actively star-forming dwarf galaxies, Haro 2 and Haro 4, and of the spiral galaxy NGC 3510 (Haro 26), some 22' SW of Haro 4 (8.5kpc). We also present a map of the CO(1-0) distribution of ...
