摘要

We have carefully selected a sample of 60 galaxies that reside in the deepest underdensities of geometrically identified voids within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. H I imaging of 55 galaxies with the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope reveals morphological and kinematic signatures of ongoing interactions and gas accretion. We probe a total volume of 485 Mpc ~3 within the voids, with an angular resolution of 8 kpc at an average distance of 85 Mpc. We reach column density sensitivities of 5 × 10 ~(19) cm ~(-2), corresponding to an H I mass limit of 3 × 10 ~8 M_?. We detect H I in 41 galaxies, with total masses ranging from 1.7 × 10 ~8 to 5.5 × 10 ~9 M. The upper limits on the 14 non-detections are not inconsistent with their luminosities, given their expected H I mass-to-light ratios. We find that the void galaxies are generally gas-rich, low-luminosity, blue disk galaxies, with optical and H I properties that are not unusual for their luminosity and morphology. The sample spans a range of absolute magnitudes (-16.1 > M _r > -20.4) and colors (0.06
