Abstract: In this notes unbounded regular operators on Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules over arbitrary $C^{*}$-algebras are discussed. A densely defined operator $t$ possesses an adjoint operator if the graph of $t$ is an orthogonal summand. Moreover, for a densely defined operator $t$ the graph of $t$ is orthogonally complemented and the range of $$ is dense in its biorthogonal complement if and only if $t$ is regular. For a given $C^{*}$-algebra $mathcalA$ any densely defined $mathcalA$-linear closed operator $t$ between Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules is regular, if and only if any densely defined $mathcalA$-linear closed operator $t$ between Hilbert $C^{*}$-modules admits a densely defined adjoint operator, if and only if $mathcalA$ is a $C^{*}$-algebra of compact operators. Some further characterizations of closed and regular modular operators are obtained. Changes 1: Improved results, corrected misprints, added references. Accepted by J. Operator Theory, August 2007 / Changes 2: Filled gap in the proof of Thm. 3.1, changes in the formulations of Cor. 3.2 and Thm. 3.4, updated references and address of the second author.
