Areas of massive star formation are strongly influenced by stellar winds and supernovae, therefore, enhanced turbulent flows are expected. We analyse high-quality Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array observations of the neutral hydrogen gas…
NGC 1808 is a nearby barred starburst galaxy with an outflow from the nuclear region. To study the inflow and outflow processes related to star formation and dynamical evolution of the galaxy, we have carried out \(^{12}\)CO (\(J=1-0\))…
Hot gaseous halos are predicted around all large galaxies and are critically important for our understanding of galaxy formation, but they have never been detected at distances beyond a few kpc around a spiral galaxy. We used the Chandra…
I present sensitive high resolution HI VLA B+C+D array observations of the edge-on Scd galaxy NGC 4244. The gas layer of NGC 4244 is rather symmetric in all respects, i.e. the surface density distribution, flaring and warping, so that the…
We present a structural analysis of NGC891, an edge-on galaxy that has long been considered to be an analogue of the Milky Way. Using starcounts derived from deep HST/ACS images, we detect the presence of a thick disk component in this…
We investigate the dynamics of starbursting dwarf galaxies, using both new and archival HI observations. We consider 18 nearby galaxies that have been resolved into single stars by HST observations, providing their star formation history…
We present multifrequency radio continuum as well as HI observations of the superwind galaxy NGC1482, with both the GMRT and the VLA. This galaxy has a remarkable hourglass-shaped optical emission line outflow as well as bi-polar soft X-ray…
We present UBR and H$\alpha$ imaging of NGC 1620, a highly inclined spiral galaxy that contains a large scale, arc-like feature of radius 3 kpc in its outer disk at a distance of $\sim$ 11 kpc from the center. What is unusual about this…
Haro 2 , a nearby dwarf starburst dwarf galaxy with strong Ly alpha emission, hosts a starburst that has created outflows and filaments. The clear evidence for galactic outflow makes it an ideal candidate for studying the effects of…
Dwarf galaxies provide a special environment due to their low mass, small size and generally low metal content. These attributes make them perfect laboratories for the interaction of massive stars with the interstellar medium on small and…
We report the detection of 1 10^7 M_sun of molecular gas in the central region of the S0/E7 galaxy NGC4550, inferred from observations of CO(1-0) emission. Dust is detected in HST WFPC2 images and found to be asymmetrically distributed…
We report the discovery of a kpc scale molecular contrail in the spiral galaxy NGC 3627, a narrow structure spanning 8 kpc in length with a width of 200 pc and an extreme aspect ratio of 40, observed in both mid-infrared dust emission…
Hubble Space Telescope archive data are used to perform photometry of stars in seven fields at the center and periphery of the galaxy NGC2366. The variation of the number density of stars of various ages with galactocentric radius and along…
This paper reports on the atomic hydrogen gas (HI) observations of the spiral galaxy NGC 1566 using the newly commissioned Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope. We measure an integrated HI flux density of…
We study the neutral hydrogen distribution and kinematics in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy IC 1613 and compare them with the ionized gas distribution and stellar content of the galaxy. We discuss several mechanisms which may be…
This review summarizes the state of the knowledge of the nearby (D = 3.4 Mpc) radio source Centaurus A and its host galaxy NGC 5128. The massive elliptical host galaxy appears to be moderately triaxial. It contains a strongly warped thin…
Our GMRT HI observations of the ultra diffuse galaxy (UDG) UGC 2162, projected $\sim$ 300 kpc from the centre of the M77 group, reveal it to a have an extended HI disk (R$_{HI}$/R$_{25}$ $\sim$ 3.3) with a moderate rotational velocity…
We present 21-cm observations and models of the neutral hydrogen in NGC 4565, a nearby, edge-on spiral galaxy, as part of the Westerbork Hydrogen Accretion in LOcal GAlaxieS (HALOGAS) survey. These models provide insight concerning both the…
NGC 1427A is a LMC-like irregular galaxy in the Fornax cluster with an extended pattern of strong star formation around one of its edges, which is probably due to some kind of interaction with the cluster environment. We present H-alpha…
Observations with the Hubble Space Telescope reveal an irregular network of dust spiral arms in the nuclear region of the interacting disk galaxy NGC 2207. The spirals extend from ~50 pc to ~300 pc in galactocentric radius, with a projected…
