VIII/73). The selection of the brightest sources is based on their HI peak flux density (Speak≳116mJy) as measured from the spatially integrated HIPASS spectrum. The derived HI masses range from ∼107 to 4x1010MSun. While the BGC (z<0.03) is complete in Speak, only a subset of ∼500 sources can be considered complete in integrated HI flux density (FHI≳25Jy.km/s). The HIPASS BGC contains a total of 158 new redshifts. These belong to 91 new sources for which no optical or infrared counterparts have previously been catalogued, an additional 51 galaxies for which no redshifts were previously known, and 16 galaxies for which the catalogued optical velocities disagree.

Note (2): Spatially integrated, where appropriate. Note (3): Spatially and spectrally. Note (4): Measured at the midpoint of the 50% level of the peak flux density. All velocities are in the heliocentric velocity frame using the optical convention. Note (5): Measured at the 50% level of the peak flux density. The uncertainty is about 2*e_VSys. Note (6): Measured at the 20% level of the peak flux density. The uncertainty is about 3*e_VSys. Note (7): Calculated using VLG=VSys+300sin(GLON)cos(GLAT). Note (8): Calculated using logM=2.36e5*D2*FHI, where FHI is the integrated HI flux density in Jy.km/s, and D the distance in Mpc. Distances are derived using D=VLG/H0. We adopt a Hubble constant of H0=75km/s/Mpc. Note (9): Flag on logM, defined as follows: * = Independent distance used in logM derivation. + = If these sources are Magellanic debris, as suggested, then the adopted distances (D=VLG/H0) and resulting HI masses are incorrect. Assuming D=50kpc, we obtain HI masses of ∼105M. Note (10): Galaxy pairs and groups are also marked as such. e = Extended source; c = Confused source; : = Galaxy with no previous velocity measurement; w = Galaxy with potentially incorrect velocity measurement; r = Baseline ripple; h = Hanning smoothing. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- History: From electronic version of the journal
