PHANGS–JWST First Results: Destruction of the PAH Molecules in H ii Regions Probed by JWST and MUSE

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) play a critical role in the reprocessing of stellar radiation and balancing the heating and cooling processes in the interstellar medium but appear to be destroyed in H ii regions.

Wolf-Rayet stars in H II regions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1971
A catalogue of WR stars coincident with H II regions is presented. Approximately 44 per cent of the WR stars surveyed are found to be 'possibly' associated with nebulosity while association is considered to be 'probable' for 25 per cent of the cases ...

Ionized gas kinematics in bipolar H II regions [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
Stellar feedback plays a fundamental role in shaping the evolution of galaxies. Here, we explore the use of the ionized gas kinematics in young, bipolar H II regions as a probe of early feedback in these star- forming environments.

Spatially Resolved Temperature and Density Structures of Nearby H ii Regions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Photoionization models frequently assume constant temperature or density within H ii regions. We investigate this assumption by measuring the detailed temperature and density structures of four H ii regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small ...

Clustered Formation of Massive Stars within an Ionized Rotating Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2022
We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations with a 800 au resolution and radiative-transfer modeling of the inner part ( r ≈ 6000 au) of the ionized accretion flow around a compact star cluster in formation at the center of the ...

Backscattering and Line Broadening in Orion

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2022
Examination of emission lines in high-velocity-resolution optical spectra of the Orion Nebula confirms that the velocity component on the red wing of the main ionization front emission line is due to backscattering in the Photon Dominated Region.

Excited Hydroxyl Outflow in the High-mass Star-forming Region G34.26 + 0.15

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
G34.26 + 0.15 is a region of high-mass star formation that contains a broad range of young stellar objects in different stages of evolution, including a hot molecular core, hypercompact H ii regions, and a prototypical cometary ultracompact H ii region ...

Mapping Physical Conditions in Neighboring Hot Cores: NOEMA Studies of W3(H2O) and W3(OH)

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The complex chemistry that occurs in star-forming regions can provide insight into the formation of prebiotic molecules at various evolutionary stages of star formation.

Comparing Complex Chemistry in Neighboring Hot Cores: NOEMA Studies of W3(H2O) and W3(OH)

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Presented here are NOEMA interferometric observations of the neighboring hot cores W3(H _2 O) and W3(OH). The presence of two star-forming cores at different evolutionary stages within the same parent cloud presents a unique opportunity to study how the ...
