The 100-m radio telescope at Effelsberg has been used in the total power mode
(ON-OFF) combining a reference field 5 min earlier in RA with the
on-source position. The dual channel HEMT receiver had a system noise of
30 K.
The 1024 channel autocorrelator was split into 4 bands (bandwidth 6.25 MHz)
of 256 channels each
shifted in frequency by 5 MHz with respect to their neighbor in order to
cover a velocity range from -470 to 3970 kms-1 overlapping
1.5 MHz between channels.
The resulting channel separation was 5.1 kms-1 yielding a
resolution of 6.2 kms-1 (10.2 kms-1 after Hanning
smoothing). The H I profiles observed with the 100-m radiotelescope
are presented in Fig. 1 in order of increasing RA as in Table 1.
The half power beam width (HPBW) of the Effelsberg
telescope at this wavelength is 9
3.
