نویسنده
چکیده
Extragalactic HI astronomy is half century old. Its maturity dramatically increased in the 1970s, with the commissioning of new powerful facilities. Its contributions to Cosmology are important, from the observation of galaxy rotation curves that showed the presence of dark matter in galaxies, to the measurement of cosmological parameters and the mapping of the large scale structure of the Universe. The Arecibo telecope has played a key role in these developments. It is also currently engaged in a number of experiments that utilize its L–band feed array to map thousands of square degrees of the sky and obtain the most sensitive large–scale view of the low z HI Universe.

We present visible and near-infrared reflectance spectra and interpreted surface mineralogy for asteroid 10537 (1991 RY16). The spectrum of this object is without precedent amongst the Main Belt asteroids. A unique absorption band centered at 0.63 microns could be attributed to one of several mineralogies. Pronounced 1and 2-micron absorption bands suggest that the composition of 10537

The SKA will be a unique instrument with which to study the evolution of the gas content of galaxies. A proposed deep (∼ 8 Msec) 'pencil-beam' survey is simulated using recently updated specifications for SKA sensitivity and survey speed. Almost 10 7 galaxies could be detected in the redshifted 21cm line, most at redshifts in excess of two. This will enable confident statements to be made about...
