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 carried out a molecular line study toward the three Spitzer bubbles S116, S117 and S118 which show active formation of high-mass stars. We found molecular gas consisting of two components with velocity difference of {$\sim 5$ \kms}. One…

We present the first interferometric CO(J=1->0) map of the entire H-alpha disk of M33. The 13" diameter synthesized beam corresponds to a linear resolution of 50 pc, sufficient to distinguish individual giant molecular clouds (GMCs). From…

An extended HI cloud (VIRGOHI 21) with an HI mass of $\sim10^8$ M$_{\odot}$ and no apparent optical counterpart was recently discovered in the Virgo cluster. In order to understand the origin of physical properties of apparently isolated HI…

Massive stellar clusters provide radiation ($\mathrm{\sim 10^7-10^8~L_{\odot}}$) and winds ($\mathrm{\sim 1000~km/s}$) that act to heat dust and shape their surrounding environment. In this paper, the Arched Filaments in the Galactic center…

There is evidence in 21cm HI emission for voids several kpc in size centered approximately on the Galactic centre, both above and below the Galactic plane. These appear to map the boundaries of the Galactic nuclear wind. An analysis of HI…

We present HI observations of the compact high-velocity cloud HVC289+33+251 that was discovered by Putman et al. (2002). Observations with the 100-m Effelsberg telescope demonstrate that this cloud is still unresolved by the 9' beam of the…

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…

Aims: We offer a new, simpler picture of the local interstellar medium, made of a single continuous cloud enveloping the Sun. This new outlook enables the description of a diffuse cloud from within and brings to light some unexpected…

We present observations of the CO isotopologues ($^{12}$CO, $^{13}$CO, and C$^{18}$O) toward the Galactic region with $169\arcdeg.75 \leqslant l \leqslant 174\arcdeg.75$ and $-0\arcdeg.75 \leqslant b \leqslant 0\arcdeg.5$, using the Purple…

The Wisconsin H-Alpha Mapper (WHAM) Northern Sky Survey is revealing that many intermediate-velocity (|v_LSR| <= 100 km/s) neutral clouds and complexes have an associated ionized component. We present the first map of the H-Alpha emission…

A model is proposed for determining the distances to falling interstellar clouds in the galactic halo by measuring the cloud velocity and column density and assuming a model for the vertical density distribution of the Galactic interstellar…

We compare existing high spectral resolution (R=40,000) CaII K observations towards 88 mainly B-type stars, and new observations at R=10,000 towards 3 stars, with 21-cm HI emission-line profiles, in order to search for optical absorption…

We present the results of ALMA-ACA 7 m-array observations in $^{12}$CO($J=2-1$), $^{13}$CO($J=2-1$), and C$^{18}$O($J=2-1$) line emission toward the molecular-gas disk in the Local Group spiral galaxy M33 at an angular resolution of 7".31…

We present an analysis comparing the properties of 45 giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in M33 and the atomic hydrogen (HI) with which they are associated. High-resolution VLA observations are used to measure the properties of HI in the…

A 21 cm neutral hydrogen interferometric survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) combined with the Parkes multi-beam HI single-dish survey clearly shows that the HI gas is distributed in the form of clumps or clouds. The HI clouds and…

Recent molecular line observations with ALMA and NOEMA in several Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCG) have revealed the large-scale filamentary structure at the center of cool core clusters. These filaments extend over 20-100kpc, they are…
