(Abridged) A large fraction of the gas in galactic haloes has temperatures between 10^4.5 and 10^7 K. At these temperatures, cooling is dominated by metal-line emission if the metallicity Z>~0.1 Zsun. We explore the detectability of several…

Observations of 21-cm radio emission by neutral hydrogen at redshifts z ~ 0.5 to ~ 2.5 are expected to provide a sensitive probe of cosmic dark energy. This is particularly true around the onset of acceleration at z ~ 1, where traditional…

We detect the neutral hydrogen (HI) radial brightness temperature profile in large-scale haloes by stacking 48,430 galaxies selected from the 2dFGRS catalogue onto a set of 21-cm intensity maps obtained with the Parkes radio telescope,…

We present near-infrared spectra obtained to search for Pa-alpha and molecular hydrogen lines in edge-darkened (FR I-type) radio galaxies with bright Halpha emission in the redshift range 0.0535<z<0.15. We find that all three galaxies in…
