Abstract
A VLA HI map was made of NGC 55. In this study, there is a continuum
map (ngc0055.con), an HI data cube (ngc0055.cub), and moment maps
(ngc0055.m0 = total HI, ngc0055.m1 = velocity field, and ngc0055.m2 =
second moment). These maps have been used in an extensive dynamical
and kinematical study of the Sculptor Group galaxies. The images and
related TeX file come from the NRAO CDROM "Images From the Radio
Universe" (c. 1992 National Radio Astronomy Observatory, used with
permission).
