Scientific paper

The kinematic structure of cirrus features was examined in seven cirrus fields by identifying the velocity intervals in the 21-cm line emission. The velocities of the H I structures associated with the infrared cirrus span a large range. Cirrus features are sometimes superpositions of kinematically distinct components which can be separated on the basis of kinematic information. The results of the analysis suggest that anomalous velocities are common among cirrus features and that some acceleration mechanism is an important aspect of the general cirrus phenomenon.
