Our changing view of the blue compact dwarf NGC 2915
E. C. Elson, W. J. G. de Blok, R. C. Kraan-Koretweg
Results from new HI synthesis observations of the nearby blue compact dwarf galaxy, NGC 2915, carried out on the Australian Telescope Compact Array are presented. High resolution H…
Quantified Morphology of HI Disks in the Universe
B. W. Holwerda, W. J. G. de Blok, A. Bouchard +3
he upcoming new perspective of the high redshift Universe in the 21 cm line of atomic hydrogen opens possibilities to explore topics of spiral disk evolution, hitherto reserved for…
What is Driving the HI Velocity Dispersion?
D. Tamburro, H. -W. Rix, A. K. Leroy +5
We explore what dominant physical mechanism sets the kinetic energy contained in neutral, atomic (HI) gas. We compare the HI line widths predicted from turbulence driven by superno…
Multi-Scale CLEAN: A comparison of its performance against classical CLEAN in galaxies using THINGS
J. W. Rich, W. J. G. de Blok, T. J. Cornwell +4
A practical evaluation of the Multi-Scale CLEAN algorithm is presented. The data used in the comparisons are taken from The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS). The implementation of…
Geometrically Derived Timescales for Star Formation in Spiral Galaxies
D. Tamburro, H. -W. Rix, F. Walter +4
We estimate a characteristic timescale for star formation in the spiral arms of disk galaxies, going from atomic hydrogen (HI) to dust-enshrouded massive stars. Drawing on high-res…
Dynamical Centers and Non-Circular Motions in THINGS Galaxies: Implications for Dark Matter Halos
C. Trachternach, W. J. G. de Blok, F. Walter +2
We present harmonic decompositions of the velocity fields of 19 galaxies from THINGS (The \HI Nearby Galaxy Survey) which quantify the magnitude of the non-circular motions in thes…
