We present numerical radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of cometary HII regions for a number of champagne flow and bowshock models. For the champagne flow models we study smooth density distributions with both steep and shallow gradients. We also consider cases where the ionizing star has a strong stellar wind, and cases in which the star additionally has a proper motion within the ambient density gradient. We present simulated emission-measure maps and long-slit spectra of our results. Our numerical models are not tailored to any particular object but comparison with observations from the literature shows that, in particular, the models combining density gradients and stellar winds are able to account for both the morphology and radial velocity behavior of several observed cometary HII regions, such as the well-studied object G29.96-0.02.
We report on the detection of optically thick free-free radio sources in the galaxies M33, NGC 253, and NGC 6946 using data in the literature. We interpret these sources as being young, embedded star birth regions, which are likely to be clusters of
It has been proposed recently that the small size and long lifetime of ultra-compact HII regions (UCHIIs) could be due to pressure confinement if the thermal pressure of the ambient gas is higher than previous estimates. We point out that confinement
We simulate evolution of cometary H II regions based on several champagne flow models and bow shock models, and calculate the profiles of the [Ne II] fine-structure line at $12.81mu m$, the $H30alpha$ recombination line and the [Ne III] fine-structur
The four HII regions in the Sgr A East complex: A, B, C, and D, represent evidence of recent massive star formation in the central ten parsecs. Using Paschen-alpha images taken with HST and 8.4 GHz VLA data, we construct an extinction map of A-D, and briefly discuss their morphology and location.
