Mass constraints from multiphase cooling flow models
Peter A. Thomas
I review the multiphase cooling flow equations that reduce to a relatively simple form for a wide class of self-similar density distributions described by a single parameter, .…

Multiphase cooling flows
Peter A. Thomas
I discuss the multiphase nature of the intracluster medium whose neglect can lead to overestimates of the baryon fraction of clusters by up to a factor of two. The multiphase form…

Cosmology using the Parkes Multibeam Southern-Sky HI Survey
P. A. Thomas
I discuss the implications of the Parkes HI Multibeam Southern Sky Survey for cosmology. It will determine the local mass function of HI clouds, detecting several hundred per decad…
