We present neutral hydrogen (HI) imaging observations with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope of AGC198606, an HI cloud discovered in the ALFALFA 21cm survey. This object is of particular note as it is located 16 km/s and 1.2 degrees…

Large-scale (up to 100 kpc) HI structures have been found in three radio galaxies using the WSRT and the VLA. In one case, the HI has been detected in emission while in the other two HI absorption is detected against the radio lobes. In at…

We present a study of the filamentary structure in the atomic hydrogen (HI) emission at the 21 cm wavelength toward the Galactic plane using the observations in the HI4PI survey. Using the Hessian matrix method across radial velocity…

We present imaging of the HI 21cm absorption line system seen toward the nuclear regions of Mrk 231 at z = 0.04217, and imaging of the radio continuum emission at 1.4 GHz, on scales ranging from a few parsecs to a few hundred parsecs. These…
