To continue the unparalleled success of the Very Large Array (VLA) for radio astronomy, the facility is currently being converted to become the 'Expanded VLA' (EVLA). The EVLA will radically improve the VLA in order to cover the full…
We report a deep Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) search for Galactic H{\sc i} 21cm absorption towards the quasar B0438$-$436, yielding the detection of wide, weak H{\sc i} 21cm absorption, with a velocity-integrated H{\sc i} 21cm…
In this paper we study 21-cm absorption spectra and the corresponding emission spectra toward bright continuum sources in the test region (326deg< l < 333 deg) of the Southern Galactic Plane Survey. This survey combines the high resolution…
Detecting HI using redshifted Ly-alpha absorption lines is 1e6 times more sensitive than using the 21cm emission line. We review recent discoveries of HI Ly-alpha absorbers made with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) which have allowed us a…
We describe the scientific goals and survey design of the First Large Absorption Survey in HI (FLASH), a wide field survey for 21-cm line absorption in neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) at intermediate cosmological redshifts. FLASH will be…
We have selected a sample of 80 candidates for obscured radio-loud active galactic nuclei and presented their basic optical/near-infrared (NIR) properties in Paper 1. In this paper, we present both high-resolution radio continuum images for…
In a 21 cm neutral hydrogen survey of approximately 55 sq deg out to a redshift of cz=8340 km/s, we have identified 75 extragalactic HI sources. These objects comprise a well-defined sample of extragalactic sources chosen by means that are…
We report the detection of 21-cm and H2 absorption lines in the same DLA system (log N(HI)=21.36+-0.10) at zabs=3.17447 towards SDSSJ133724+315254 (z=3.174). We estimate the spin temperature of the gas to be, Ts~600 K, intermediate between…
Very sensitive HI 21cm observations have been made in 860 directions at dec >= -43deg in search of weak, Galactic, high-velocity HI emission lines at moderate and high Galactic latitudes. One-third of the observations were made toward…
We present an HI absorption survey of the central 250 pc of the Galaxy. Very Large Array (VLA) observations were made at 21 cm in the DnC and CnB configurations and have a resolution of ~15"(0.6 pc at the Galactic Center (GC) distance) and…
Hydrogen column densities inferred from X-ray absorption are typically 5 - 30 times larger than the neutral atomic hydrogen column densities derived from 21cm HI absorption toward radio-loud active galactic nuclei. Some part of the…
I report the detection of HI 21cm absorption in two high column density damped Lyman-$\alpha$ absorbers (DLAs) at $z \approx 2$ using new wide-band $250-500$ MHz receivers onboard the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. The integrated HI 21cm…
We use the millennium Arecibo 21 cm absorption-line survey measurements to examine the issue of the non-thermal contribution to the observed Galactic HI line widths. If we assume a simple, constant pressure model for the HI in the Galaxy,…
We present the results of a survey for intervening 21cm HI absorption in a sample of 10 nearby, gas-rich galaxies selected from the HI Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS). This follows the six HIPASS galaxies searched in previous work and…
We present the results of a search for associated 21 cm HI absorption at redshift 0.42 < z < 1.00 in radio-loud galaxies from three Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey fields. These observations were carried out as part of a pilot survey…
We have detected HI 21cm line absorption by the Warm Neutral Medium (WNM) using the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope. The absorption was detected toward Cygnus A at LSR velocities of -40 and -70 km s^{-1}. These two velocity ranges were…
We investigate the practice of assigning high spin temperatures to damped Lyman-alpha absorption systems (DLAs) not detected in HI 21-cm absorption. In particular, Kanekar & Chengaulr (2003) have attributed the mix of 21-cm detections and…
