A General Catalog of HI Observations of Galaxies I. The Reference

W.K. Huchtmeier & O.-G. Richter

Summary

A catalog of all published HI observations of external galaxies has been compiled. Its construction is briefly described. It contains almost 20,000 entries for over 10,000 galaxies based on more than 570 references. Here the reference catalog is presented. It contains the HI data basically just as they were originally published. No numerical conversions were made and no error correction was attempted.

Description of the Catalog

Our reference catalog is presented in Table 1. It contains - where given by the authors - the following data:
 If * in column (14) coordinates were taken from previos row.
 Before it was signed  -"- in name of galaxy. (by S.Trushkin)
 Number       of entries  in this list: 19976
 Number       of galaxies in this list: 10309

A General Catalog of HI Observations of External Galaxies
by
W.K. Huchtmeier & O.-G. Richter, H.D. Bohnenstengel and M.Hauschildt
May 1983.
-----------------------------------

A collection of published 21-cm line (emission-) measurements of external
galaxies is presented in this catalog.
There are more than 8750 entries for a total  of nearly 4700 galaxies.(<1982)

 (in  our version of 1989)
 Number       of entries  in this list: 19976
 Number       of galaxies in this list: 10309
...

Apart from the objects name and its coordinates it contains - if given
by the authors - the following data.
- morphological type
- inclinations I used by the authors
- total mass Mtot in 10^10 solar masses,
- the HI mass: intergated flux (in Jy km/s), the reduced HI-mass  to HI-mass
  to distance of 1 Mpc, unit: 10^6 M_o/Mpc; or only the upper limit for
  the peak flux is given (in mJy).
- the radial velocity  km/s
- the linewidth  50% in km/s
- the distance used by the authors in Mpc
- optical dimensions A and B in arcmin
- the max rotational velocity Vmax in km/s,
- position angle PA in degs
