We present new 21-cm HI observations performed with ATCA of the large HI filament located about 15 kpc NE from the centre of Centaurus A and discovered by Schiminovich et al.(1994). This HI cloud is situated (in projection) near the radio…

[Abridged] The interstellar medium is observed to be organised in filamentary structures, as well as neutral (HI) and ionized (HII) bubbles. The expanding nature of these bubbles makes them shape their surroundings and possibly play a role…

We present HI observations of the edge-on galaxy NGC 891. These are among the deepest ever performed on an external galaxy. They reveal a huge gaseous halo, much more extended than seen previously and containing almost 30 % of the HI. This…

The HI structure and kinematics of the peculiar starburst galaxy NGC 3310 (Arp 217, UGC 5786) are discussed. New evidence bearing on the origin of the starburst is presented. The bulk of HI coincides with the bright optical disk and shows…

NGC 6334 is a giant molecular cloud complex with elongated filamentary structure, harbouring OB-stars, HII regions and star forming clumps. To study the emission and velocity structure of the gas in the extended NGC 6334 region, we made…

Neutral hydrogen observations of the nearby, edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 891 reveal the presence of an HI halo extending up to at least 5 kpc from the plane. This halo gas appears to rotate 25 to 100 km/s more slowly than the gas in the…

We present new neutral hydrogen (HI) observations of the nearby galaxy NGC 2403 to determine the nature of a low-column density cloud that was detected earlier by the Green Bank Telescope. We find that this cloud is the tip of a complex of…

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…

Galactic HI emission profiles in an area where several large-scale filaments at velocities ranging from -46 km/s to 0 km/s overlap were decomposed into Gaussian components. Eighteen families of components defined by similarities of center…

We characterize the kinematic and magnetic properties of HI filaments located in a high Galactic latitude region ($165^\circ < \alpha < 195^\circ$ and $12^\circ < \delta < 24^\circ$). We extract three-dimensional filamentary structures…

We present a study of the filamentary structure in the emission from the neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) at 21 cm across velocity channels in the 40'' and 1.5-km/s resolution position-position-velocity cube resulting from the combination of…

Using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST), we detect a giant HI filamentary structure in the sky region of 307$.\!\!^{\circ}$7 $<$ $\alpha$ $<$ 311$.\!\!^{\circ}$0 and 40$.\!\!^{\circ}$9 $<$ $\delta$ $<$…

We present VLA H I and 6 cm radio continuum observations of the spiral NGC 3145 and H I observations of its two companions, NGC 3143 and PGC 029578. In optical images NGC 3145 has stellar arms that appear to cross, forming "X"-features. Our…

We present a HI synthesis imaging study of NGC 864 (CIG 96), a spiral galaxy well isolated from similarly sized companions, yet presenting an intriguing asymmetry in its integral HI spectrum. The asymmetry in the HI profile is associated…

We present new, sensitive HI observations of the Sculptor group galaxy NGC 55 with the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We achieve a 5 sigma HI column density sensitivity of 10^19 cm^-2 over a spectral channel width of 8 km/s for emission…

Australia Telescope Compact Array HI observations reveal the existence of 5.8x10^8 M_sun of HI gas in the central 7 kpc of the edge-on spiral galaxy NGC 3175. The detected HI and CO gas can explain why star formation, as traced by other…

We report on VLA HI spectral line observations of five early-type galaxies classified as optically peculiar due to the presence of jets, ripples or other optical "fine structure". We detect HI within the primary beam (30' HPBW) in four of…

NGC 4441 is a candidate for a merger between a spiral and an elliptical galaxy (S+E merger), because it shows typical tidal structures such as an optical tail and two shells. With a far-infrared luminosity of $\sim 5\cdot 10^9 L_{\odot}$…

We carried out the near-infrared ($JHK_{\rm s}$) imaging polarimetric observation with the polarimeter SIRPOL on the Infrared Survey Facility (IRSF) 1.4 m telescope and [CII] line mapping observation with a Fabry-P\'{e}rot spectrometer on…

Observed HI accretion around nearby galaxies can only account for a fraction of the gas supply needed to sustain the currently observed star formation rates. It is possible that additional accretion happens in the form of low column density…
