Based on imaging and spectroscopic data, we develop a 3-D model for the Huygens Region of the Orion Nebula. Theta1OriC , the hottest star in the Trapezium, is surrounded by a wind-blown Central Bubble that opens SW into the Extended Orion Nebula. Outside of this feature lies a layer of ionized gas at about 0.4 pc from Theta1OriC. Both of these features are moving rapidly away from Theta1OriC with an expansion age for the Central Bubble of only 15,000 yrs.

HST images, MUSE maps of emission-lines, and an atlas of high velocity resolution emission-line spectra have been used to establish for the firrst time correlations of the electron temperature, electron density, radial velocity, turbulence, and orien
tation within the main ionization front of the nebula. From the study of the combined properties of multiple features, it is established that variations in the radial velocity are primarily caused by the photo-evaporating ionization front being viewed at different angles. There is a progressive increase of the electron temperature and density with decreasing distance from the dominant ionizing star Theta1 Ori C. The product of these characteristics (NexTe) is the most relevant parameter in modeling a blister-type nebula like the Huygens Region, where this quantity should vary with the surface brightness in Halpha. Several lines of evidence indicate that small-scale structure and turbulence exists down to the level of our resolution of a few arcseconds. Although photo-evaporative ow must contribute at some level to the well-known non-thermal broadening of the emission lines, comparison of quantitative predictions with the observed optical line widths indicate that it is not the major additive broad- ening component. Derivation of Te values for H+ from radio+optical and optical-only ionized hydro- gen emission showed that this temperature is close to that derived from [Nii] and that the transition from the well-known at extinction curve that applies in the Huygens Region to a more normal steep extinction curve occurs immediately outside of the Bright Bar feature of the nebula.
We have extended the membership and determined the 3-D structure of the large (0.19 pc) HH~269 sequence of shocks in the Orion Nebula. All of the components lie along a track that is highly tilted to the plane-of-the-sky and emerge from within the Or
ion-S embedded molecular cloud. Their source is probably either the highly obscured mm 9 source associated with a high N2H+ density core (more likely) or the more distant star COUP 632 (less likely). The former must be located in the Photon Dominated Region (PDR) underlying the ionized surface of the Orion South Cloud, while the latter would be embedded within the cloud. The flows seem to be episodic, with intervals of 1900 to 2600 years or 700 to 2600 years if COUP 632 is the source.
We present the discovery of expanding spherical shells around low to intermediate-mass young stars in the Orion A giant molecular cloud using observations of $^{12}$CO (1-0) and $^{13}$CO (1-0) from the Nobeyama Radio Observatory 45-meter telescope.
The shells have radii from 0.05 to 0.85 pc and expand outward at 0.8 to 5 km/s. The total energy in the expanding shells is comparable to protostellar outflows in the region. Together, shells and outflows inject enough energy and momentum to maintain the cloud turbulence. The mass-loss rates required to power the observed shells are two to three orders of magnitude higher than predicted for line-driven stellar winds from intermediate-mass stars. This discrepancy may be resolved by invoking accretion-driven wind variability. We describe in detail several shells in this paper and present the full sample in the online journal.
We establish that there are two velocity systems along lines-of-sight that contribute to the emission-line spectrum of the the brightest parts of the Orion Nebula. These overlie the Orion-S embedded molecular cloud southwest of the dominant ionizing
star (Theta1OriC). Examination of 10x10 samples of high spectral resolution emission-line spectra of this region reveals it to be of low ionization, with velocities and ionization different from the central part of the Nebula. These properties jeopardize earlier determinations of abundance and physical conditions since they indicate that this region is much more complex than has been assumed in analyzing earlier spectroscopic studies and argue for use of very high spectral resolution or known simple regions in future studies.
The kinematics and dynamics of stellar and substellar populations within young, still-forming clusters provides valuable information for constraining theories of formation mechanisms. Using Keck II NIRSPEC+AO data, we have measured radial velocities
for 56 low-mass sources within 4 of the core of the ONC. We also re-measure radial velocities for 172 sources observed with SDSS/APOGEE. These data are combined with proper motions measured using HST ACS/WFPC2/WFC3IR and Keck II NIRC2, creating a sample of 136 sources with all three velocity components. The velocities measured are consistent with a normal distribution in all three components. We measure intrinsic velocity dispersions of ($sigma_{v_alpha}$, $sigma_{v_delta}$, $sigma_{v_r}$) = ($1.76pm0.12$, $2.16^{+0.14}_{-0.15}$, $2.54^{+0.16}_{-0.17}$) km s$^{-1}$. Our computed intrinsic velocity dispersion profiles are consistent with the dynamical equilibrium models from Da Rio et al. (2014) in the tangential direction, but not in the line of sight direction, possibly indicating that the core of the ONC is not yet virialized, and may require a non-spherical potential to explain the observed velocity dispersion profiles. We also observe a slight elongation along the north-south direction following the filament, which has been well studied in previous literature, and an elongation in the line of sight to tangential velocity direction. These 3-D kinematics, coupled with estimates of source masses, will allow future studies to determine the dominant formation mechanism, differentiating between models such as competitive accretion and turbulent fragmentation.
