Notes. The stated frequency of observations gives the range of central frequencies. The channel width in km s-1 is for a frequency of 1400 MHz. No. of antennas used is the number used in the Fourier transforms. Maximum and minimum baseline are valid for a complete array without projection effects. Synthesized beam sizes and rms noise levels are average values, where the rms noise is measured in individual channel maps. All observations were carried out in dual-polarization.

(*)

Three of these galaxies were also observed with the WSRT, providing higher-quality data.

Data for 6 galaxies observed with the GMRT are presented here.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
