Scientific paper

We present results from single-dish 21-cm HI line observations of 15 spiral-dominated loose groups of galaxies, made at the Nançay radio observatory. The galaxy groups have been selected to represent 2 different categories: groups showing optical evidence of galaxy interaction (``interacting'' sample), and groups showing no obvious morphological disturbances among their members (``control'' sample). We find statistically significant differences in some of the global HI properties (mass, rotation curves, presence of intragroup gas) between the 2 samples. These results possibly implicate a more advanced stage of dynamical evolution for the interacting sample.
