The Arecibo Galaxy Environments Survey Isolated Galaxies Sample
Abstract
The Arecibo Galaxy Environments Survey (AGES) is a neutral hydrogen (HI) survey covering 16 fields and sampling the whole gamut of galaxy environments from voids to clusters. This includes 5 square degree regions around three isolated galaxies: NGC 5523, UGC 2082 and NGC 1156. We here present the results of the AGES observations of the isolated galaxy sample, including our finding that the dwarf:giant ratio is, even with only three galaxies, significantly lower than would be predicted from the field HI mass function.
