VizieR Online Data Catalog: HI global scaling relations in WISE-WHISP (Naluminsa+, 2021)

The sample used in this study was chosen from the WHISP 30arcsec resolution data which have higher sensitivity to low HI column density structures than the full resolution (14arcsecx14arcsec/sinδ) data.

Infrared data for the sample were obtained from the WISE Extended Source Catalogue (Jarrett et al. 2019ApJS..245...25J, Cat. J/ApJS/245/25) which constructed native resolution mosaics and carried out source characterization designed for large galaxies. WISE mid-IR imaging is sensitive to stellar mass (in the short-wavelength bands) and ISM activity (long wavelength bands). Galaxies in close interactions (close enough for the interaction to be seen in the infrared images) or mergers as well as poor data and non-detections were excluded. These data were visually inspected to ensure there were no disturbances on the target's IR flux by bright foreground stars. Wherever the masking or subtraction of these stars adversely compromised the disc of the galaxy that target was dropped from the sample. These criteria resulted in a sample of 228 galaxies.
