Abstract:We report on the detection of a large, extended H i cloud complex in the GAMA G23 field, located at a redshift of z ∼ 0.03, observed as part of the MeerHOGS campaign (a pilot survey to explore the mosaicing capabilities of MeerKAT). The cloud complex, with a total mass of 10 10.0 M , lies in proximity to a large galaxy group with M dyn ∼ 10 13.5 M . We identify seven H i peak concentrations, interconnected as a tenuous 'chain' structure, extending ∼400 kpc from east-to-west, with the largest (central) concentr… Show more
