We have obtained two-dimensional velocity fields of the dwarf spiral galaxy NGC 2976 in Halpha and CO. The high spatial (~75 pc) and spectral (13 km/s and 2 km/s, respectively) resolution of these observations, along with our multicolor…
In order to complete our HI survey of galaxies in the Sculptor group area, VLA observations of NGC 24 and NGC 45 are presented. These two galaxies of similar magnitude M_B ~ -17.4 lie in the background of the Sculptor group and are low…
We report subarcsecond-resolution VLA imaging of four nearby spiral galaxies: IC 342, Maffei II, NGC 2903, and NGC 6946. In each galaxy, compact radio continuum sources are identified in the central ~ 15" x 15" region. These compact sources…
VLA and Parkes 64 m radiotelescope 21-cm observations of the starburst dwarf galaxy NGC 5253 reveal a multi-component non-axisymmetric HI distribution. The component associated with the stellar body shows evidence for a small amount of…
The distributions of size and luminosity for star-forming regions in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 628 are studied over a wide range of scales using progressively blurred versions of an image from the Hubble Space Telescope Advanced Camera…
We present ALMA observations with a 800 au resolution and radiative-transfer modelling of the inner part ($r\approx6000$ au) of the ionized accretion flow around a compact star cluster in formation at the center of the luminous…
We present a deep (50 hours exposed) image of the nearby spiral galaxy M 63 (NGC 5055), taken with a 0.14-m aperture telescope. The galaxy halo exhibits the known very faint system of stellar streams extending across 110 kpc. We found 5…
The fine dust detected by IR emission around the nearby Beta Pic analogue star HD172555 is very peculiar. The dust mineralogy is composed primarily of highly refractory, non-equilibrium materials, with approximately three-quarters of the Si…
We present multi-wavelengths observations and a radiative transfer model of a newly discovered massive circumstellar disk of gas and dust which is one of the largest disks known today. Seen almost edge-on, the disk is resolved in…
We present high angular resolution near--infrared images of the obscured Galactic Giant HII (GHII) region G333.1--0.4 in which we detect an OB star cluster. For G333.1--0.4, we find OB stars and other massive objects in very early…
High sensitivity H I observations of the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 2403 obtained with the VLA are presented and discussed. The properties of the extended, differentially rotating H I layer with its H I holes, spiral structure and outer warp…
We present the first high-resolution study of the disk-halo interface in an edge-on galaxy (NGC 5775) in which every component of the interstellar medium is represented and resolved. New single-dish CO J=2-1 and CO J=1-0 data, ROSAT X-ray…
We present the highest resolution (1") $^{12}$CO(1-0) observations of molecular gas in the dwarf starburst galaxy NGC 625, to date, obtained with ALMA. Molecular gas is distributed in discrete clouds within an area of $0.4$ kpc$^2$ and does…
A study is presented of HI line observations of the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 3521 observed with the VLA as part of The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey. Clearly evident in the HI data cube is the presence of an anomalous HI component that is both…
We report the discovery of a new HI ring around the S0 galaxy NGC 1533. The ring orbits at a radius of 35 kpc, well outside the optical extent of the galaxy. We have conducted N-body/SPH numerical simulations to show this HI ring could be…
We used the Australia Telescope Compact Array to map a large field of approximately $2^{\circ} \times 2^{\circ}$ around the Sculptor group galaxy NGC~300 in the 21-cm line emission of neutral hydrogen. We achieved a $5 \sigma$ \ion{H}{i}…
We analyse Herschel/SPIRE images of the edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 891 at 250, 350 and 500 micron. Using a 3D radiative transfer model we confirm that the dust has a radial fall-off similar to the stellar disk. The dust disk shows a break at…
The Circumnuclear Disk (CND) is a torus of dust and molecular gas rotating about the galactic centre and extending from approximately 1.6pc to 7pc from the central massive black hole, SgrA*. Large Velocity Gradient modelling of the…
The GMRT observations of the HI 21~cm-line emission from 13~nearby dwarf star-forming galaxies are presented. The ranges of star formation rates and stellar masses of the sample galaxies are 0.03 -- 1.7~$M_\odot~{\rm yr}^{-1}$ and 0.04 --…
