Using the 21-cm line of HI to search for galaxies is a relatively new technique, and it is important to understand the types of objects which will be discovered by large HI blind searches, such as those to be conducted with the multibeam system. Will a 21-cm-selected sample consist of the same types of galaxies which are found in optical- or IR-selected samples, or will they differ? ...

... 640W A survey of ultracompact (UC) Hii regions has been carried out by searching for 6.669-GHz methanol maser emission from a sample of 535 IRAS-selected candidates. A total of 201 candidates exhibit methanol emission. These sources have been used, in conjunction with previously identified UC Hii regions, to provide a base for further studies of such regions. ... Methanol maser and/or radio continuum emission is found in 364 cases towards IRAS-selected regions. ...

... The search for distant objects which can be both galaxies and quasars is one of the most important problems of observational astrphysics, because it allows one to determine cosmological parameters connected with the time of appearence and evolution of stellar systems, large scale structure of the Universe. ... Radio galaxies are important objects to be studied because they are sources of infrared-optical-ultraviolet continuum, emission lines and continual radio emission. ...

... The history of star formation was successfully analyzed for the first time based on the spectra of the stellar population of dwarf galaxies of low surface brightness outside the Local Group.
