Global HI profiles of spiral galaxies

Abstract

In this paper we present short HI synthesis observations of 57 galaxies without HI information in the RC3. These are a by-product of a large survey with the WSRT of the neutral hydrogen gas in spiral and irregular galaxies. Global profiles and related quantities are given for the 42 detected galaxies and upper limits for the remaining 15. A number of galaxies have low values of HI mass-to-blue luminosity ratio.Comment: A LATEX file without figures.
