Kleiner et al. present the results of ASKAP observations of the nearby blue, barred spiral galaxy IC 5201. The observations were made as part of the a Wide-field ASKAP L-Band Legacy All-sky Blind surveY (WALLABY) survey. A four-beam mosaicked HI image cube was created from 175 hours of observations made with the Early Science 12-antenna sub-array, achieving a noise level of 1.7 mJy/beam per channel.
The image above shows the ASKAP HI detections as blue contours, overlaid onto an optical DSS2 B-band image. The black outline shows the border of the mosaicked cube. A total of 9 ASKAP HI sources were detected: 8 galaxies and a tidal features in the NGC 7232 triplet. More details are given in the paper , published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society .
