Cometary compact H II regions are stellar-wind bow shocks
Astrophysical Journal, 1990 Comet-shaped H II regions, like G34.3 + 0.2, are easily explained as bow shocks created by wind-blowing massive stars moving supersonically through molecular clouds. The required velocities of the stars through dense clumps are less than about 10 km/s, comparable to the velocity dispersion of stars in OB associations.

Extended red objects and stellar-wind bow shocks in the Carina Nebula [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014 We report the results of infrared photometry on 39 extended red objects (EROs) in the Carina Nebula, observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope. Most EROs are identified by bright, extended 8.0 um emission, which ranges from 10'' to 40'' in size, but our sample also includes 4 EROs identified by extended 24 um emission.

Planetary Evaporation and the Dynamics of Planet Wind/Stellar Wind Bow Shocks [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2015 AbstractWe present initial results of a new campaign of simulations focusing on the interaction of planetary winds with stellar environments using Adaptive Mesh Refinement methods. We have confirmed the results of Stone & Proga (2009) that an azimuthal flow structure is created in the planetary wind due to day/night temperatures differences.

High-sensitivity radio study of the non-thermal stellar bow shock EB27 [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 ABSTRACT We present a deep radio-polarimetric observation of the stellar bow shock EB27 associated with the massive star BD+43○3654. This is the only stellar bow shock confirmed to have non-thermal radio emission. We used the Jansky Very Large Array in S band (2–4 GHz) to test whether this synchrotron emission is polarized.

Ram-pressure balance surfaces for an outwardly accelerating stellar wind bow shock [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2014 We study the problem of a stellar wind bowshock (produced by an isotropic wind/plane flowing environment interaction) that lies within the wind acceleration region in the simple, ram-pressure balance approximation. We show that this problem has a simple, approximate analytic solution that produces reasonably accurate results when applied to wind ...
