LCDM Satellites and HI Companions - The Arecibo ALFA Survey of NGC 2903

J. A. Irwin, G. L. Hoffman, K. Spekkens +11

We have conducted a deep, complete HI survey, using Arecibo/ALFA, of a field centered on the nearby, isolated galaxy, NGC 2903, which is similar to the Milky Way in its properties.…

Optically Unseen HI Detections towards the Virgo Cluster detected in the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey

Brian R. Kent, Riccardo Giovanelli, Martha P. Haynes +8

We report the discovery by the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA (ALFALFA) survey of eight HI features not coincident with stellar counterparts in the Virgo Cluster region. All of the HI cl…
