Description
The sky north of declination -40 deg. was observed in the 21 cm line of atomic hydrogen with the FWHM = 2 deg. beam of the 20 foot horn reflector at AT&T Bell Laboratories, Crawford Hill. The survey covers a velocity range of 654 km/s centered on the Galactic standard of rest, with 5.3 km/s wide filters. This survey is distinguished by its sensitivity to low surface brightness features (antenna temperature about 50 mK) and relative freedom from sidelobe contamination. The high-velocity cloud list was extracted and catalogued automatically from the survey data.
