CO and HI in a southern sample of interacting galaxies. I. The data
Abstract
Using SEST, the Parkes antenna and the Australia Telescope Compact Array, we have made a survey of the ^12CO(1-0) and HI emission of an optically-selected sample of ~60 southern interacting and merging galaxies. In this paper we present the data and determine global masses of neutral gas (in molecular and atomic form) for the observed galaxies. We have detected HI in 26 systems and found that these galaxies have less than 15% of their gas in molecular form. Figure 3 in its entirely is only available in electronic form at CDS via anonymous ftp to cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr (130.79.128.5) or via http://cdsweb.u-strasbg.fr/Abstract.html
