Wide-field optical imaging was obtained of the cluster and reflection nebula NGC 7023 and the Bok globule B175. We report the discovery of four new Herbig-Haro (HH) objects in NGC 7023, the first HH objects to be found in this region. They…

Galactic neutral hydrogen (HI) within a few hundred parsecs of the Sun contains structure with an angular distribution that is similar to small-scale structure observed by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). A total of 108…

(abridged) An object classified as a galaxy in on-line data bases and revealed on sky survey images as a distant ring galaxy is a rare case of polar ring galaxy where the ring is only slightly inclined to the equatorial plane of the central…

We present an analysis of the HI absorption in a sample of 101 flux-selected radio AGN (S_1.4 GHz > 50 mJy) observed with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). HI absorption is detected in 32 galaxies, showing a broad variety of…

We present results from GMRT HI 21 cm line observations of the interacting galaxy pair Arp 181 (NGC 3212 and NGC 3215) at z =0.032. We find almost all of the detected HI (90%) displaced well beyond the optical disks of the pair with the…

We have completed a 21-cm survey of a 600 square degree region of the Centaurus A group of galaxies at a redshift of ~500 km/s as part of a larger survey of the entire southern sky. This group of galaxies was recently the subject of a…

HI observations of the nearby blue compact dwarf galaxy IC 10 obtained with the Dominion Radio Astrophysical Observatory synthesis telescope (DRAO), for a total integration of $\sim$1000 hours, are presented. We confirm the NW faint 21 cm…

Using the Parkes radio telescope, we study the 21cm neutral hydrogen (HI) properties of a sample of galaxies with redshifts z<0.13 extracted from the optical 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey (2dFGRS). Galaxies at 0.04<z<0.13 are studied using new…

We present new observations of the gravitational lens system CLASS B0128+437. HST observations detect a very faint, extended object in I-band with no emission from the lensed images visible; no detection at all is made in V-band. The lens…

As part of a systematic study that we are performing with the aim to increase the observational evidence of triggered star formation in the surroundings of HII regions, we analyze the ISM around the HII region G35.673-00.847, a poorly…

We report the discovery and follow-up observations of a system of three objects identified by the ALFALFA extragalactic HI survey, cataloged as (almost) dark extragalactic sources, i.e., extragalactic HI detections with no discernible…

We present Expanded Very Large Array (EVLA) D-array observations in the 21-cm line of neutral hydrogen (HI) of CIG 292, an isolated SA(s)b galaxy at a distance of ~ 24.3Mpc. From previous HI single dish observations the galaxy was known to…

WSRT observations have been used to investigate the presence of neutral hydrogen in extremely young radio galaxies. These objects were selected from a sample of High-Frequency Peakers (HFPs). We detect 2 of the 6 observed galaxies…

The morphology of the atomic hydrogen (HI) disk of a spiral galaxy is the first component to be disturbed by a gravitational interaction such as a merger between two galaxies. We use a simple parametrisation of the morphology of HI column…

We present high-resolution ($0\farcs2$) near-infrared images of the area surrounding the Herbig Be star LkH$\alpha$ 234 taken with the Coronagraphic Imager with Adaptive Optics (CIAO) and the adaptive optics on the Subaru Telescope. The…

(Abridged) The luminous z=0.286 quasar HE0450-2958 is interacting with a companion galaxy at 6.5 kpc distance and the whole system is a ULIRG. A so far undetected host galaxy triggered the hypothesis of a mostly "naked" black hole (BH)…

We report the discovery of twelve faint Herbig-Haro (HH) objects in LDN 673 found using a novel color-composite imaging method that reveals faint H{\alpha} emission in complex environments. Follow-up observations in [S II] confirmed their…

We present Australia Telescope Compact Array mosaic HI imaging of the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy WLM. We find an integrated flux of 149 Jy km/s and a total HI mass of 3.2 x 10^7 solar masses. The major axis of the HI is aligned with…

We report the discovery of a new gravitationally lensed QSO, at a redshift z = 1.689, with four QSO components in a cross-shaped arrangement around a bright galaxy. The maximum separation between images is 2.6 arcsec, enabling a reliable…

We present the first results of a study aimed to detect large HI structures in radio galaxies. In two of the three cases presented (Coma A and B2 0648+27), the detection of a large amount of HI distributed over several tens of kpc suggests…
