Abstract:We present the results of a VLA HI imaging survey aimed at understanding why some galaxies develop long extraplanar Hα tails, becoming extreme jellyfish galaxies. The observations are centered on five extreme jellyfish galaxies, optically selected from the WINGS and OmegaWINGS surveys and confirmed to have long Hα tails through MUSE observations. Each galaxy is located in a different cluster. In the observations there are in total 88 other spiral galaxies within the field of view (40 x40 ) and observed bandwid… Show more
