The Westerbork HALOGAS Survey: Data Release 1

The Westerbork HALOGAS Survey: Data Release 1 The Westerbork Hydrogen Accretion in LOcal GAlaxieS (HALOGAS) Survey comprises deep neutral hydrogen (HI) 21-cm emission line observations of 24 nearby galaxies, along with ancillary data products such as deep optical imaging, radio continuum images, and single-dish HI data. This first data release (HALOGAS-DR1) provides the following HI data products in FITS format, for each of the 24 galaxies: High resolution (~15") data products Data cube: -HR-cube.fits Moment-0 (integrated intensity): -HR_mom0m.fits Column density: -HR_coldens.fits Moment-1 (average velocity): -HR_mom1m.fits Low resolution (~30") data products Data cube: -LR-cube.fits Moment-0 (integrated intensity): -LR_mom0m.fits Column density: -LR_coldens.fits Moment-1 (average velocity): -LR_mom1m.fits Moment maps were generated with the SoFiA source finding package.
