The research will be a continuation of studies of the Virgo                     Cluster of galaxies, its local supercluster, and related galaxy                 systems.  The proposed work is largely observational, using the                 Arecibo telescope to observe the 21 centimeter spectral line of                 neutral hydrogen (HI) to study the gas content and internal                     dynamics of dwarf galaxies in Virgo, in low density regions behind              Virgo and toward the supercluster pole, and around groups of                    galaxies  within the local supercluster.  The global HI properties              of these galaxies will allow a critical comparison of these                     observations with N-body simulations which should resolve                       questions concerning mass segregation, recent theories of biased                galaxy formation, and various mechanisms of morphological                       segregation and HI deficiencies.  The new HI data, along with data              from other sources, will extend the Tully-Fisher correlation                    between the blue color magnitude (luminosity) and HI profile width              of the spectral line to the quite small dwarf galaxies which                    constitute the dominant population of most galaxy groups.                       Undergraduate students will be directly involved in the research.
