TL;DR
This paper introduces a curated collection of 181 HI maps of peculiar galaxies, combining optical and HI data, accessible via a web-based gallery to aid galaxy evolution studies.
Contribution
It presents the first extensive compilation of HI maps of peculiar galaxies, integrating optical and HI data into an accessible online gallery.
Findings
Over 400 galaxies included in the gallery
Provides a visual resource for studying galaxy peculiarities
Facilitates research on gas and galaxy evolution
Abstract
We have begun a compilation of HI maps of peculiar galaxies kindly contributed by individual investigators, many as part of the ``Gas & Galaxy Evolution'' conference. In this gallery we present images of the first 181 objects, which includes over 400 individually cataloged galaxies. The images consist of a greyscale representation of the optical morphology and an accompanying optical image with HI contours superimposed. A web-based ``living Gallery'' is being maintained on the NRAO homepage (presently at http://www.nrao.edu/astrores/HIrogues/).
