Abstract (from CDS):

We present the results of the northern extension of the H I Parkes Zone of Avoidance Survey, a blind H I survey utilizing the multibeam receiver on the Parkes 64 m telescope. In the two regions studied here, l=36°-52° and l=196°-212°,|b|≤5°, we have detected 77 H I galaxies, 20 of which have been previously detected in H I. The survey has a median rms noise of 6.0 mJy/beam and is complete to a mean flux density of 22 mJy. We have searched for multiwavelength counterparts to the 77 galaxies detected here: 19, 27, and 11 have a likely optical, 2MASS, and IRAS cataloged counterpart, respectively. A further 16 galaxies have likely visible counterparts on the Digitized Sky Survey. The detection of these 77 galaxies allows a closer inspection of the large-scale structures in these regions. We see several filaments crossing the Galactic plane, one of which appears to be the continuation of a sine-wave-like feature that can be traced across the whole southern sky. An analysis of the H I mass function suggests that the regions studied here may be underdense. One particularly noteworthy galaxy is HIZOA J0630+08 (l,b=203°,-0°.9) with a velocity of 367±1 km/s. We suggest that it belongs to the nearby Orion Group, which includes a small number of dwarf galaxies. The newly detected galaxies improve our understanding of the properties of several voids, such as the Orion, Gemini, and Canis Major voids.
