An introduction to Radio Astronomy and using ALFA for ALFALFA
In order to study the other components (stars, dust, etc.) of the galaxies which ALFALFA detects, we make heavy use of other extragalactic surveys and databases

For members of the ALFALFA team

These are less well developed and specific to members of the team.
