- Description:
- Measurement of the Galactic neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) column density, NHI, and brightness temperatures, Tb, is of high scientific value for a broad range of astrophysical disciplines. In the past two decades, one of the most-used legacy HI datasets has been the Leiden/Argentine/Bonn Survey (LAB). We release the HI 4-pi survey (HI4PI), an all-sky database of Galactic HI, which supersedes the LAB survey. The HI4PI survey is based on data from the recently completed first coverage of the Effelsberg-Bonn HI Survey (EBHIS) and from the third revision of the Galactic All-Sky Survey (GASS). EBHIS and GASS share similar angular resolution and match well in sensitivity. Combining both, they are ideally suited to be a successor to LAB. The new HI4PI survey outperforms the LAB in angular resolution (16.1', FWHM) and sensitivity (43mK RMS). Moreover, it has full spatial sampling and thus overcomes a major issue of LAB, which severely undersamples the sky. We publish all-sky column density maps of the neutral atomic hydrogen in the Milky Way, along with full spectroscopic data, in several map projections including HEALPix.

- Description:
- We present the analysis of neutral hydrogen properties of 108 galaxies, based on short 21-cm observations with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT). The results of two HI surveys are analysed to investigate the existence of relations between optical and HI properties, like diameters, hydrogen masses and average surface densities. For all galaxies in our sample we find that the HI diameter, defined at a surface density level of 1M_{sun}_/pc^2^, is larger than the optical diameter, defined at the 25^th^mag/arcsec^2^ isophotal level. The Hi-to-optical-diameter ratio does not depend on morphological type or luminosity. The strongest, physically meaningful, correlation for the sample of 108 galaxies is the one between logM_HI_ and logD_HI_, with a slope of 2. This implies that the HI surface density averaged over the whole HI disc is constant from galaxy to galaxy, independent of luminosity or type. The radial HI surface density profiles are studied using the technique of principal component analysis. We find that about 81% of the variation in the density profiles of galaxies can be explained by two dimensions. The most dominant component can be related to "scale" and the second principal component accounts for the variance in the behaviour of the radial profile in the central parts of galaxies (i.e. "peak or depression") . The third component accounts for 7% of the variation and is most likely responsible for bumps and wiggles in the observed density profiles.

- H I-selected galaxies in South Celestial Cap
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The first deep catalog of the H I Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) is presented, covering the south celestial cap (SCC) region. The SCC area is ~2400deg^2^ and covers {delta}<-62{deg}. The average rms noise for the survey is 13 mJy/beam. Five hundred thirty-six galaxies have been catalogued according to their neutral hydrogen content, including 114 galaxies that have no previous catalogued optical counterpart. This is the largest sample of galaxies from a blind H I survey to date. Most galaxies in optically unobscured regions of sky have a visible optical counterpart; however, there is a small population of low-velocity H I clouds without visible optical counterparts whose origins and significance are unclear. The rms accuracy of the HIPASS positions is found to be 1.9'. The H I mass range of galaxies detected is from ~10^6^ to ~10^11^M_{sun}_.

- HI-selected Lyman limit systems metallicities

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the first results from our KODIAQ Z survey aimed at determining the metallicity distribution and physical properties of the z>~2 partial and full Lyman limit systems (pLLSs and LLSs; 16.2<=logN_HI_<19), which are probed of the interface regions between the intergalactic medium (IGM) and galaxies. We study 31 HI-selected pLLSs and LLSs at 2.3<z<3.3 observed with Keck/HIRES in absorption against background QSOs. We compare the column densities of metal ions to HI and use photoionization models to assess the metallicity. The metallicity distribution of the pLLSs/LLSs at 2.3<z<3.3 is consistent with a unimodal distribution peaking at [X/H]~-2. The metallicity distribution of these absorbers therefore evolves markedly with z since at z<~1 it is bimodal with peaks at [X/H]~-1.8 and -0.3. There is a substantial fraction (25%-41%) of pLLSs/LLSs with metallicities well below those of damped Ly{alpha} absorbers (DLAs) at any studied z from z<~1 to z~2-4, implying reservoirs of metal-poor, cool, dense gas in the IGM/galaxy interface at all z. However, the gas probed by pLLSs and LLSs is rarely pristine, with a fraction of 3%-18% for pLLSs/LLSs with [X/H]<=-3. We find C/{alpha} enhancement in several pLLSs and LLSs in the metallicity range -2<~[X/H]<~-0.5, where C/{alpha} is 2-5 times larger than observed in Galactic metal-poor stars or high-redshift DLAs at similar metallicities. This is likely caused by preferential ejection of carbon from metal-poor galaxies into their surroundings.

- HI self-absorption (HISA) survey in the CGPS
- Short Name:

- CDS
- Description:
- We present a 21cm line HI self-absorption (HISA) survey of cold atomic gas within Galactic longitudes l=75{deg} to 146{deg} and latitudes b=-3{deg} to +5{deg}. We identify HISA as spatially and spectrally confined dark HI features and extract it from the surrounding HI emission in the arcminute-resolution Canadian Galactic Plane Survey (CGPS). We compile a catalog of the most significant features in our survey and compare our detections against those in the literature. Within the parameters of our search, we find nearly all previously detected features and identify many new ones.

- Description:
- We analyse the all-sky Leiden/Argentina/Bonn HI survey, where we identify shells belonging to the Milky Way. We used an identification method based on the search of continuous regions of a low brightness temperature that are compatible with given properties of HI shells. We found 333 shells in the whole Galaxy. The size distribution of shells in the outer Galaxy is fitted by a power law with the coefficient of 2.6 corresponding to the index 1.8 in the distribution of energy sources. Their surface density decreases exponentially with a scale length of 2.8kpc. The surface density of shells with radii >100pc in the solar neighbourhood is around 4 per kpc^2^ and the 2D porosity is around 0.7.

- Description:
- We present results of a method for an automatic search for HI shells in 3D data cubes and apply it to the Leiden-Dwingeloo HI survey of the northern Milky Way. In the 2nd Galactic quadrant, where identifications of structures are not substantially influenced by overlapping, we find nearly 300 structures.

- HI size-mass relation of galaxies
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/460/2143

- Description:
- We revisit the HI size-mass (D_HII_-M_HI_) relation of galaxies with a sample of more than 500 nearby galaxies covering over five orders of magnitude in HI mass and more than 10 B-band magnitudes. The relation is remarkably tight with a scatter {sigma}~0.06dex, or 14 per cent. The scatter does not change as a function of galaxy luminosity, HI richness or morphological type. The relation is linked to the fact that dwarf and spiral galaxies have a homogeneous radial profile of HI surface density in the outer regions when the radius is normalized by D_HI_. The early-type disc galaxies typically have shallower HI radial profiles, indicating a different gas accretion history. We argue that the process of atomic-to-molecular gas conversion or star formation cannot explain the tightness of the D_HI_-M_HI_ relation. This simple relation puts strong constraints on simulation models for galaxy formation.

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present a homogeneous compilation of HI spectral parameters extracted from global 21cm line spectra for some 9000 galaxies in the local universe (heliocentric velocity -200<V_{sun}_<28,000km/s) obtained with a variety of large single-dish radio telescopes but reanalyzed using a single set of parameter extraction algorithms. Corrections to the observed HI line flux for source extent and pointing offsets and to the HI line widths for instrumental broadening and smoothing are applied according to model estimates to produce a homogenous catalog of derived properties with quantitative error estimates. Where the redshift is available from optical studies, we also provide flux measurements for an additional 156 galaxies classified as marginal HI detections and rms noise limits for 494 galaxies classified as nondetections.
