We present an analysis of the neutral hydrogen (HI) properties of a fully cosmological hydrodynamical dwarf galaxy, run with varying simulation parameters. As reported by Governato et al. (2010), the high resolution, high star formation…
We discuss our recent results on the statistical properties of damped Lyman alpha systems (DLAs) at low redshift (z<1.65) (Rao & Turnshek 2000). Contrary to expectations, we found that the cosmological neutral gas mass density as traced by…
At low densities the standard ionisation history of the intergalactic medium (IGM) predicts a decreasing temperature of the IGM with decreasing density once hydrogen (and helium) reionisation is complete. Heating the high-redshift,…
Continuum observations at 350um are presented of seven nearby elliptical galaxies, for which CO-gas disks have recently been resolved with interferometry mapping. These SHARCII mapping results provide the first clearly resolved…
We use high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulations from the FIRE project to make predictions for the covering fractions of neutral hydrogen around galaxies at z=2-4. These simulations resolve the interstellar medium of galaxies and…
Galaxies detected in the 21-cm line of neutral hydrogen (HI) from the on-going Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) blind extragalactic HI survey have been cross-correlated with Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 7 (Abazajian et al. 2009)…
In the best observed spiral galaxies, the HI is observed to decline slowly with radius for up to 90% of the maximum extent, before experiencing a rapid truncation. Early models predicted that the outer parts of spirals would be fully…
We use a set of cosmological simulations combined with radiative transfer calculations to investigate the distribution of neutral hydrogen in the post-reionization Universe. We assess the contributions from the metagalactic ionizing…
About 25% of the optical extragalactic sky is obscured by the dust and stars of our Milky Way. Dynamically important structures might still lie hidden in this zone. Various approaches are presently being employed to uncover the galaxy…
We present neutral hydrogen observations for a sample of eight nearby, late-type, edge-on galaxies. All of the galaxies have been well resolved in the radial direction, while six have also been well resolved in the vertical direction. We…
Where dust and gas are uniformly mixed, atomic hydrogen can be traced through the detection of far-infrared (FIR) or UV emission of dust. We considered, for the origin of discrepancies observed between various direct and indirect tracers of…
We present a catalog of holes and shells in the neutral atomic hydrogen (\HI) of 41 gas-rich dwarf galaxies in LITTLE THINGS (Local Irregulars That Trace Luminosity Extremes, The \HI Nearby Galaxy Survey). We analyzed their properties as…
This paper is the first in a series presenting a sample of 29 late-type dwarf galaxies, observed with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) in the 21-cm line of neutral atomic hydrogen (HI). The sample itself, the HI content of…
Neutral hydrogen (HI) emission closely traces the dust column density at high Galactic latitudes and is thus a powerful tool for predicting dust extinction. However, the relation between HI column density $N_{\rm HI}$ and high-latitude dust…
We use the high-resolution TNG50 cosmological magnetohydrodynamical simulation to explore the properties and origin of cold circumgalactic medium (CGM) gas around massive galaxies (M* > 10^11 Msun) at intermediate redshift (z~0.5). We…
Aims: we studied the global distribution and kinematics of the extra-planar neutral gas in the Milky Way. Methods: we built 3D models for a series of Galactic HI layers, projected them for an inside view, and compared them with the…
We investigate the global neutral hydrogen (HI) content of isolated galaxies selected from the SDSS spectroscopic survey with optical evidence of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). Our sample includes galaxies with unresolved HI observations…
The atomic hydrogen gas (HI) disk in the outer region (beyond ~10 kpc from the centre) of Milky Way can provide valuable information about the structure of the dark matter halo. The recent 3-D thickness map of the outer HI disk from the all…
Radio maps at 21 cm of foreground neutral hydrogen over three cooling flow clusters of galaxies show that the foreground gas is uniform on scales from about 1 -- 10 arcmin. Five sigma limits on fluctuations in the foreground column density…
