A search for hypercompact HII regions in the Galactic Plane [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
22 pages, 8 figures, 6 tables, accepted by MNRASWe have carried out the largest and most unbiased search for hypercompact (HC) H II regions. Our method combines four interferometric radio continuum surveys (THOR, CORNISH, MAGPIS, and White2005) with far ...

H II Region Driven Galactic Bubbles And Their Relationship To The Galactic Magnetic Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The relative alignments of mid-infrared traced Galactic bubbles are compared to the orientation of the mean Galactic magnetic field in the disk. The orientations of bubbles in the northern Galactic plane were measured and are consistent with random ...

Quasar H II Regions During Cosmic Reionization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Cosmic reionization progresses as HII regions form around sources of ionizing radiation. Their average size grows continuously until they percolate and complete reionization.

Properties of H II Regions in the Centers of Nearby Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
As part of an optical spectroscopic survey of nearby, bright galaxies, we have identified a sample of over 200 emission-line nuclei having optical spectra resembling those of giant extragalactic H II regions. Such "H II nuclei," powered by young, massive

Chlorine and Sulfur in Nearby Planetary Nebulae and H II Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We derive the chlorine abundances in a sample of nearby planetary nebulae (PNe) and H II regions that have some of the best available spectra. We use a nearly homogeneous procedure to derive the abundance in each object and find that the Cl/H abundance ...

Ionization Front Instabilities in Primordial H II Regions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Radiative cooling by metals in shocked gas mediates the formation of ionization front instabilities in the galaxy today that are responsible for a variety of phenomena in the interstellar medium, from the morphologies of nebulae to triggered star ...

Properties of H II region populations in galaxies. II - The H II region luminosity function

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1989
H-alpha emission-line fluxes have been measured for all of the detected H II regions in 30 nearby spiral and irregular galaxies, and these data are used to study the behavior of the H II region luminosity functions (LFs). In most galaxies, the LF is well represented by a power law function.

Sagittarius B1: A Patchwork of H ii Regions and Photodissociation Regions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2021
Abstract Sgr B1 is a luminous H ii region in the Galactic center immediately next to the massive star-forming giant molecular cloud Sgr B2 and apparently connected to it from their similar radial velocities. In 2018 we showed from SOFIA FIFI-LS observations of the [O iii] 52 and 88 μm lines that there is no central exciting star cluster ...

The Chocolate Chip Cookie Model: Dust-to-metal Ratio of H ii Regions

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Using a sample of face-on star-forming galaxies selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we statistically derive the typical optical depth τ _cl of individual H ii regions based on the “Chocolate Chip Cookie” model of Lu et al. (2022).
