We have observed a 3 degree x 3 degree area centered on the M81/M82 group of galaxies using the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT) in a search for analogs to the High Velocity Clouds (HVCs) of neutral hydrogen found around our…
The Green Bank Telescope has been used to search for 21cm HI emission over a large area between the galaxies M31 and M33 in an attempt to confirm at 9.1 arcmin angular resolution the detection by Braun and Thilker (2004) of a very extensive…
We have observed the NGC 2403 group of galaxies using the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT) in a search for faint, extended neutral hydrogen clouds similar to the clouds found around the M81/M82 group, which is located approximately…
We have used the WSRT to carry out an unbiased wide-field survey of HI emission features, achieving an RMS sensitivity of about 18 mJy/Beam at a velocity resolution of 17 km/s over 1800 deg^2. In this paper we present our HI detections at…
Green Bank Telescope (GBT) 21cm observations have revealed a faint, yet extensive HI cloud population surrounding the Andromeda Galaxy (M31). The newfound objects are likely analogs to the high-velocity HI clouds (HVCs) seen around the…
Understanding the distribution of gas in and around galaxies is vital for our interpretation of galaxy formation and evolution. As part of the Arecibo Galaxy Environment Survey (AGES) we have observed the neutral hydrogen (HI) gas in and…
As part of the HI Arecibo Galaxy Environments Survey (AGES) we have observed 5$\times$4 degrees of sky centred on M33, reaching a limiting column density of $\sim 1.5 \times 10^{17}$ cm$^{-2}$ (line width of 10 km s$^{-1}$ and resolution…
We present a comparison of the leftover satellites at z=0 in a cold dark matter dominated simulation of the formation of the Local Group to the distribution of observed neutral hydrogen high-velocity clouds and compact high-velocity clouds.…
Growing evidence supports the suggestion that the compact high-velocity clouds of HI (CHVCs) are located throughout the Local Group and continue to fuel galactic evolution. Recent distance estimates to individual objects lie in the range…
Parkes neutral hydrogen 21 cm line (HI) observations of the surroundings of 9 early-type Local Group dwarfs are presented. We detected numerous HI clouds in the general direction of those dwarfs and these clouds are often offset from the…
We present deep HI 21-cm and optical observations of the face-on spiral galaxy M 83 obtained as part of a project to search for high-velocity clouds (HVCs) in nearby galaxies. Anomalous-velocity neutral gas is detected toward M 83, with…
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…
VIRGOHI21 is an HI source detected in the Virgo Cluster survey of Davies et al. (2004) which has a neutral hydrogen mass of 10^8 M_solar and a velocity width of Delta V_20 = 220 km/s. From the Tully-Fisher relation, a galaxy with this…
We present high resolution large scale observations of the molecular and atomic gas in the Local Group Galaxy M33. The observations were carried out using the HERA at the 30m IRAM telescope in the CO(2-1) line achieving a resolution of…
We have observed 11 compact high-velocity clouds in the 21-cm line of neutral hydrogen with the 100-m telescope in Effelsberg. Our observations show that most of the clouds have a rather complex morphology. Head-tail structures and…
Neutral hydrogen clouds are found in the Milky Way and Andromeda halo both as large complexes and smaller isolated clouds. Here we present a search for Hi clouds in the halo of M33, the third spiral galaxy of the Local Group. We have used…
Five galaxy groups with properties similar to those of the Local Group have been surveyed for HI clouds with the Arecibo Telescope. In total 300 pointings have been observed on grids of approximately 2.5 x 1.5 Mpc centred on the groups. The…
We have carried out a sensitive high-latitude (|b| > 15deg.) HI 21cm-line absorption survey towards 102 sources using the GMRT. With a 3-sigma detection limit in optical depth of ~0.01, this is the most sensitive HI absorption survey. We…
Sensitive 21cm HI line observations were performed for 23 dwarf members and possible members of the nearby M81 group of galaxies, including five objects of a clustering of extremely low-surface brightness objects of unknown nature. With the…
Cosmological galaxy formation models predict the existence of dark matter minihalos surrounding galaxies and in filaments connecting groups of galaxies. The more massive of these minihalos are predicted to host HI gas that should be…
