Abstract

New redshifts are presented for 51 galaxies which lie in a narrow strip along the celestial equator in the range 11 h 15 m ≤ R. A. ≤ 14 h 15 m. The redshifts are derived from a mixture of optical and H I spectra; for the latter subset (37 galaxies) H I fluxes and line widths are also presented. The spatial distribution of the galaxies in this field is compared with the locations of the large H I cloud discovered by Giovanelli and Haynes and the nearby Ly α clouds recently found toward 3C 273. One of the two Ly α clouds in the Local Supercluster appears to be associated with a spiral galaxy, althrough the angular and physical separations (42 arcmin and 180 kpc) are large. The other nearby Ly α cloud and the large H I cloud appear to be more isolated
