SUMMARY:Gas and Star Formation in Nearby Galaxies
DESCRIPTION:Gas and Star Formation in Nearby Galaxies\nDr. Bärbel S. Korib
 alski\n\nI will present results from the "Local Volume HI Survey'' (LVHIS)
 ,  including a multi-wavelength atlas of 82 nearby galaxies. The LVHIS  pr
 oject targets all nearby, gas-rich galaxies with vLG < 550 km/s or D  &
 lt; 10 Mpc that are detected in the "HI Parkes All-Sky Survey"  (HIPASS). 
 A declination limit of DEC < -30 degrees was chosen for  observations w
 ith the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The  majority of LVHIS g
 alaxies are dwarf galaxies, but we also mapped the  disks and outskirts of
  several very large galaxies (eg M83). I will also introduce the Australia
 n Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder  (ASKAP) which consists of 36 x 12-m d
 ishes, each equipped with  Phased-Array Feeds, operating from 0.7 to 1.8 G
 Hz. With a field-of-view  of 30 square degr ASKAP is a fast 21-cm survey m
 achine. Early Science  with 12 antennas has started and I will present fir
 st results on our  target field: nearby groups and clusters.
