HI Observations Towards the Sagittarius Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxy | W.B. Burton

2 Aug 1999 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | Sterrewacht Leiden, Leiden, The Netherlands), Felix J. Lockman (National Radio Astronomy Observatory, Green Bank, WV | Abstract: | We have measured the 21-cm line of Galactic HI over more than 50 square degrees in the direction of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy. The data show no evidence of HI associated with the dwarf spheroidal which might be consider analogous to the Magellanic Stream as it is associated in both position and velocity with the Large Magellanic Cloud. Nor do the HI data show evidence for any disturbance in the Milky Way disk gas that can be unambiguously assigned to interaction with the dwarf galaxy. The data shown here limit the HI mass at the velocity of the Sagittarius dwarf to <7000 solar masses over some 18 square degrees between Galactic latitudes -13 degrees and -18 degrees. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/9908012 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
