Service Name:

Catalogue of HI Parameters (CHIPA)

Description:

Information gathered from HIPASS, LVHIS, THINGS, VLA-ANGST, Little THINGS, FIGGS and WHISP. This is an extension for Martin, M. C Catalogue (1998). CHIPA was built to provide the most relevant parameters derived from the HI line emission and high resolution HI interferometer maps for galaxies published since 1953 until today. The new catalogue contains more about a hundred galaxies from both hemispheres including different morphological types.

The Catalogue of HI Parameters of galaxies (CHIPA) is an extension for Martin, M. C Catalogue (1998). CHIPA was built to provide the most relevant parameters derived from the HI line emission and high resolution HI interferometer maps for galaxies published since 1953 until today. The new catalogue contains 1437 galaxies from both hemispheres including different morphological types.

In this project, we present data on basic optical and HI properties of the galaxies, in particular optical diameter, blue magnitude, distance, morphological type, HI extension of the galaxy, velocity resolution, etc. Furthermore, it contains the HI distribution, velocity distribution and velocity dispersion maps.

The information was surveys and it is presented by a searchable database; fulfilling our goal of making bibliography research easier for astronomers . The database was built using mysql (sql, Structured Query Language), HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) and PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor).
