HI-MaNGA

HI (21cm) Followup of MaNGA Survey Galaxies using the Green Bank Telescope.

Summary

HI-MaNGA is a 21cm follow-up program for the MaNGA survey. We are currently observing all z<0.05 MaNGA galaxies with the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) which lack HI data from other sources.

The goal of HI-MaNGA is to provide valuable information about the cold gas content of galaxies, which can help to address several of MaNGA’s key science questions: (1) How does gas accretion drive the growth of galaxies? (2) What are the relative roles of stellar accretion, major mergers, and instabilities in forming galactic bulges and ellipticals? (3) What quenches star formation? What external forces affect star formation in groups and clusters? (4) How was angular momentum distributed among baryonic and non-baryonic components as the galaxy formed, and how do various mass components assemble and influence one another?

Observations have been ongoing at the Green Bank Telescope since 2016, with over 2000 hours of observing time under codes 16A-095, 17A-012, 19A-127, 20B-033, and 21B-130.

Available Data

  • DR3 (released in SDSS-IV DR17)
    • GBT observations of 3,358 galaxies
    • ALFALFA (untargeted HI survey with Arecibo) crossmatch with 3,274 galaxies (including upper limits, and 274 galaxies with data from both ALFALFA and GBT)
    • Catalog description can be found Stark et al. (2021)
  • DR2 (released in Spring 2021)
    • GBT observations of 2108 galaxies
    • ALFALFA (untargeted HI survey with Arecibo) crossmatch with 1710 galaxies
    • Catalog description can be found Stark et al. (2021)
  • DR1 (released in SDSS-IV DR15)

Due to programming issue, the HI spectra of 15 ALFALFA detections which are close to the edges of the ALFALFA footprint could not be extracted and are therefore not provided in HI-MaNGA DR2. These are plate-ifu=['8139-12702', '8139-12704', '8139-12705','8139-6101', '8438-12704', '8446-12701', '8554-12704', '8939-1902', '8943-12702', '8981-12705', '9049-3704', '9086-12701', '9192-6102', '9493-12702', '9866-6103']. This issue is corrected in DR3.
