Scientific paper

In this paper, new observations of neutral hydrogen at the redshift of the galaxy NGC3067, both in emission and absorption against the radio-loud QSO 3C232, are presented. The hydrogen forms a long tail, apparently extending from the galaxy to the QSO and beyond, which seems to be a disturbed extension of one of the galaxy's spiral arms. No companion to NGC3067, which might cause such a disturbance, can be seen. The extended gas distribution, mapped here for the first time in such a system, conforms neither to an extended disk nor to a spherical halo model with gas distributed along the line of sight.
