The Growth of H II Regions During Reionization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Recently, there has been a great deal of interest in understanding the reionization of hydrogen in the intergalactic medium (IGM). One of the major outstanding questions is how this event proceeds on large scales.

Electron Densities in H ii Regions from Observation of [N ii] 205 μm Fine Structure and Radio Recombination Lines

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We employ observations of the 205 μ m [N ii ] fine structure (FS) line and radio recombination line (RRL) emission to derive the electron density in 10 well-known H ii regions. The combination of these two spectral lines (the RRL–FS line method) provides

Massive Star Formation in the Ultraviolet Observed with the Hubble Space Telescope

open access: yesGalaxies, 2020
Spectroscopic observations of a massive star formation in the ultraviolet and their interpretation are reviewed. After a brief historical retrospective, two well-studied resolved star clusters and the surrounding H II regions are introduced: NGC 2070 in ...

The Detection of Higher-order Millimeter Hydrogen Recombination Lines in the Large Magellanic Cloud

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We report the first extragalactic detection of the higher-order millimeter hydrogen recombination lines (Δ n > 2). The γ -, ϵ -, and η -transitions have been detected toward the millimeter continuum source N 105–1 A in the star-forming region N 105 in ...

IC 5146 Dark Streamer: The First Reliable Candidate of Edge Collapse, Hub-filament Systems, and Intertwined Sub-filaments

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The paper presents an analysis of multiwavelength data of a nearby star-forming site, the IC 5146 dark streamer ( d ∼ 600 pc), which has been treated as a single and long filament, fl .

FINDING DISTANT GALACTIC H ii REGIONS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The WISE Catalog of Galactic H ii Regions contains ∼2000 H ii region candidates lacking ionized gas spectroscopic observations. All candidates have the characteristic H ii region mid-infrared morphology of WISE 12 &mgr; m ?> emission surrounding 22 &mgr;

Exploring Stellar Cluster and Feedback-driven Star Formation in the Galactic Mid-infrared Bubble [HKS2019] E70

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a comprehensive analysis of the Galactic mid-infrared bubble [HKS2019] E70 (E70) by adopting a multiwavelength approach to understand the physical environment and star formation scenario around it.

NEW STRONG-LINE ABUNDANCE DIAGNOSTICS FOR H ii REGIONS: EFFECTS OF κ-DISTRIBUTED ELECTRON ENERGIES AND NEW ATOMIC DATA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Recently, Nicholls et al., inspired by in situ observations of solar system astrophysical plasmas, suggested that the electrons in H ii regions are characterized by a κ-distribution of energies rather than a simple Maxwell–Boltzmann distribution.

DISRUPTION OF MOLECULAR CLOUDS BY EXPANSION OF DUSTY H II REGIONS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Dynamical expansion of H ii regions around star clusters plays a key role in dispersing the surrounding dense gas and therefore in limiting the efficiency of star formation in molecular clouds.

ALMA-IMF. XIV. Free–Free Templates Derived from H41α and Ionized Gas Content in 15 Massive Protoclusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We use the H41 α recombination line to create templates of the millimeter free–free emission in the ALMA-IMF continuum maps, which allows us to separate it from dust emission.
