| spelling | oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/10898 The HI super profiles of the THINGS galaxies Ianjamasimanana, Roger De Blok, W J G Astronomy Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references (leaves 95-99). We use the HI velocity profiles of The HI Nearby Galaxy Survey (THINGS) galaxies to study the phase structure of the interstellar medium (ISM) and its relation to galaxy properties and morphology. To construct high signal-to-noise (S/N) profiles, we use a method analogous to the stacking method sometimes used in high redshift HI observations. We call these high S/N profiles 'super profiles'. By decomposing the super profiles into Gaussian components, we find broad and narrow components in all our analyzed galaxies. 2015-01-01T13:06:32Z 2015-01-01T13:06:32Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/10898 eng application/pdf Department of Astronomy Faculty of Science University of Cape Town |
