In the preceding paper by Vengeret al. (1984) the results of observations of neutral gas in the vicinity of some galacticHii regions were considered; and it was demonstrated that 17 of the regions observed are surrounded by expandingHi envelopes. This paper describes a model of interaction between theHii regions and the surrounding interstellar medium constructed on the basis of the said results. It is assumed that the main dynamic factor in the envelope formation mechanism is the total stellar wind from the stars which ionze theHii regions. The employment of the observations of the line at =21 cm, of the radio continuum and IR dust continuum made it possible to determine the differential mass spectra of the stars exciting theHii zones and calculate some characteristics of the stellar population. The mass spectrum index of the objects considered turned out to be much higher than that for the mass spectra of background stars and scattered clusters of stars.  相似文献

We have measured the profile of the 21-cm line of neutral hydrogen in the direction of sixHii regions (RCW 38, RCW 49, RCW 57 (b), RCW 74, W22, and W37). By comparison with line profiles outside the nebulae we have deduced the absorption profiles corresponding to eachHii region. We compare our results with those of other authors in the 21-cm line, in the line of OH, and in the recombination lines of hydrogen.  相似文献

Stars inject energy into the interstellar medium (ISM) by radiation, stellar winds, and supernova explosions. This energy injection causes the ISM to be inhomogeneous, which in turn alters the manner in which the energy is transferred through the ISM. A significant fraction of the energy is injected by massive stars, which formHii regions in the ISM. The structure and evolution ofHii regions in a cloudy medium deffers significantly from that in a homogeneous one. The strong stellar winds produced by massive stars form bubbles in the ISM, and the structure of these bubbles is often dominated by the structure of theHii region in which they are embedded. Finally, when the star explodes as a supernova, the evolution and appearance of the resulting remnant is determined by the structure of the bubble andHii region formed by the star during its lifetime.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.  相似文献

A ring-shaped infrared emission region is recognizable on the IRAS Sky Flux images of a Cepheus region which happens to include the association Cepheus OB 2. The ring is easily visible both at 60 and 100 microns. The approximate galactic coordinates of its centre arel=102°.8 andb=+6°.7, with an outer diameter of 7 deg. IC 1396 and several otherHii regions, such as S 129, S 133, S 134, and S 140 are apparently parts of the ring. If it is assumed that these Hii regions are physically connected to the ring its distance must be about 900 pc and its diameter 120 pc. The existence of several arc-shaped H filaments along the ring, the proper motion of the nearby runaway star Cephei, and the possible presence of the [Fex] 6375 interstellar line in the spectra of two stars of Cep OB 2 combine to suggest that the infrared ring might well be a result of a supernova explosion which occurred in this region about 2–3 million years ago.  相似文献

The Becklin-Neugebauer objects are identified by means of a wide range of observable features as a separate class of very young and massive stars surrounded by optically thick dust shells. We show that they evolutionarily connect real protostars to compactHii regions. We give criteria which should be appropriate to segregate the BN objects from compactHii regions. Finally, we describe the structure of a typical BN object.Paper presented at a Workshop on The Role of Dust in Dense Regions of Interstellar Matter, held at Georgenthal, G.D.R., in March, 1986.  相似文献

The surface photometry of S254–S257 has been carried out by means of a wide range image processing technique in the reduction system. The photographic plates in the H+[NII] andV-bands are taken with the Schmidt telescope. Especially, we have obtained the calibrated map of theHii region, superposing two or more plates with different exposure times, and removing the star images. Three kinds of calibrated maps of theHii regions are drawn: (1)E-map in the (H+[NII]+continuum) (2)V-map in the continuum atV-band, (3)(E-V)-map in the (H+[NII]) line emission. The intensity profiles across the nebular centers were also obtained. Based on calibrated maps, the morphological structure and mass distribution of S255 and S257 are discussed. The location of observed nebulae on the (m Hm v) diagram, wherem H andm v denote the surface brightness, expressed in the magnitude per square arcmin, is shown together with that of some other nebulae. Some arguements on the age sequence of observedHii regions are presented.  相似文献

For complete information about the apparent distribution ofHii-regions along the whole galactic equator a Catalogue of 698 known emission nebulae is given on the basis of 13 lists and catalogues of these objects. The main catalogue used for the northern sky was that of Sharpless (1959) including 313 objects while the coverage of the southern sky can be characterized by a greater number of smaller catalogues represented in the first place by that of Rodgerset al. (1960) and that of Gum (1955). ForHii-regions, only optical data were taken into account.Where several authors describe the complex of nebulosities a more detailed specification of objects is preferred. The objects in the Catalogue are listed according to their right ascensions for 1950. As only three catalogues applied here give also the objects out of the belt ±15° around the galactic equator, the Catalogue is divided into two parts. The first (main) part contains 667 objects lying within this belt, the second contains 31 objects lying outside it. A Summary Table listing the objects from the two parts according to their galactic longitudes involving, in addition, the 50-yrs precession for every object is also added.An attempt was made not to repeat contingent errors present in the source-catalogues. The maps of the POSS were often used. Coincidences with SNR and planetaries were sought for independently of identifications given in the source-catalogues. The list of objects from the source-catalogues ofHii-regions excluded as SNR, planetaries and galaxies is also given.Astrophysics and Space Science Review Paper.  相似文献

This paper presents the results of monochromatic [Oiii], [Nii], and [Sii] observations of ring nebula Sh157 around the star (WR + B0III) HD 219460 belonging to the Ba 3 cluster. A stratification of radiation typical for photoionization excitation has been revealed. The observations suggest that the Sh157 ring structure may arise as a result of the HD 219460 stellar wind blowing the surroundingHii region, and the bubble age is found to bet(2–5)×105 yr. Three outer envelopes have been distinguished: a weaker extended emission shell apparently blown out by the wind from B-stars of the Ba 3 cluster, and two dust shells which are likely to be associated with NGC 7510 and Cas OB2. The paper is also concerned with the discussion of young star aggregates Ba 3, NGC 7510, Cas OB1, OB2, OB4, OB5, OB7, and Cep OBI and the associatedHii regions, shells and supershells of gas and dust, molecular clouds, and supernova remnants which may be probable members of a single giant stellar complex where the star formation process is in progress.  相似文献

High internal motions of the ionized material in theHii regions M 8, M16, M 17 and the Orion Nebula were searched for with a two-etalon Fabry-Perot monochromotor. The profiles of the [Oiii], 5007 Å and in one case the 4959 Å line were obtained at many positions from these nebulae. Non-gaussian wings of up to –60 km/s were found on the profiles from M 17 and M 16 over regions several minutes across. Line doubling of up to 20 km/s was definitely found in M17 and M 8. Small components with radial velocities of up to –55 km/s with respect to the means were suspected in M 8 and the Orion Nebula.  相似文献

In this study we present photometric results for the galaxy NGC 4736: infrared and visible profiles. After a careful correction for the extinction within the galaxy based on measured neutral gas surface densities, we interpret the profiles in the individual bands and in colour indices, in terms of the radial distribution of stellar populations. We pick out the behaviour of the two rings, an inner ring some 40–50 arc sec from the nucleus, and an outer ring some 300 arc sec away. We show how the photometry allows us to make tentative physical inferences about the nature of these two structures, showing that the inner ring is connected with an outflow of gas observed via itsHii regions, and is probably the result of an axisymmetric starburst, while the outer ring is a site of star formation which appears to be further from the centre than the typical resonant structures associated with a density wave.  相似文献

Photoelectric heating ofHII regions by solid grains after absorption of both stellar and diffuse photons is considered. The grain heating rate is compared with photoionization gains, and an estimate is made of the final electron temperature for a series of models of nebulae having central stars in different positions on the HR diagram.  相似文献

SeveralHii regions were observed in the Instituto Argentina de Radioastronomía (IAR) in the H166 line and 1.4 GHz radio continuum. Resulting physical parameters derived from low-frequency (H166 line) and high-frequency (H110, H109, H76 line, made by other authors) observations ofHii regions are compared. Low-frequency derived parameters describe better the low-density ionized gas conditions, whereas high-frequency observations are more sensitive to high density ionized gas located in the central parts of the nebulae.  相似文献

The radio maps of ten small Hii regions at λλ=2.8, 6 and 11 cm, obtained with the 100-m MPIR radiotelescope, are given. A comparison of the radio fluxes obtained with parameters of exciting stars is carried out. For four compact Hii regions — namely, S146, S152, S237 and S297 — we present the results of observations with the radiotelescope of the U.S.S.R. Academy of Sciences, RATAN-600. The paper also presents estimates of the physical conditions in nebulae, and conclusions are drawn about the possible stage of their evolution.  相似文献

About 460 OB associations were selected by a comparison of theUBV plates. TheUBV photographic photometry of 1944 blue stars in the associations was made. The new associations appear like cores within Humphreys and Sandage's associations. Their star content, size distribution, and mean size 80 pc confirm their identity with the OB associations in the Galaxy and in the Magellanic clouds. The boundaries of the associations are delineated mainly by the density of the resolved stars on theU plates. It is impossible to divide them into smaller areas. The genuine OB associations form groups of two or more members with a length scale of 250 pc. Their boundaries were delineated independently, but they coincide with the OB associations of Humphreys and Sandage (1980). These groups represent real concentration of blue massive stars with a large age dispersion. The star complexes unify a group of associations,Hii regions, andHi peak distribution. Their mean size is 570 pc. The extensiveHi clouds with a mean size of 1.2 kpc contain two or more star complexes. The questions related to star formation are briefly discussed.  相似文献

Molecular clouds are clumpy on length scales down to the limits of observational resolution. At least some ultracompactHii regions (UCHiiR) may result from the interaction of a young early type star and this type of cloud. The clumps can act as reservoirs of ionized gas distributed within theHii region. These models reproduce the relatively long lifetimes implied by the population statistics of UCHiiR. We present line profile and emission measure plots based on the simplest case where the flow remains supersonic through to a recombination front. The morphology agrees with the shell-like UCHiiR as classified by Churchwell. The predicted line profiles are broad and double peaked with a separation of about 50 km s–1 for the example given.  相似文献

The Hii regions S254, 255 and 257 in the constellation of Orion are close together on the sky and appear like a triple object. Fabry-Pérot radial velocities of the Hii regions as well asUBV photo-electric magnitudes of their exciting stars are obtained. The data show that (1) all three nebulae are at a distance of 2.5 kpc; (2) an excess extinction is observed in S255 and S257 while S254 shows no excess extinction; (3) S255, identified as an IR and a molecular source, is the youngest object of the group. It is concluded that the three Hii regions are at different evolutionary stages.  相似文献

We have carried out surface photometry of six simpleHii regions which are characterized by the existence of an exciting star earlier than B0, and a nearly round shape. On the basis of on balibrated image data and adopting a spherical model, we derive the distributions of gas and dust densities in theHii regions.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.On leave from the Bosscha Observatory, Institute of Technology Bandung, Indonesia.  相似文献

Integrated photoelectric measurements of the equivalent widthW H, the [Oiii]/H ratio and the H emission line flux were obtained for 30Hii regions in the SMC. Physical properties of theHii regions and their ionizing stellar associations were derived. Some aspects of the recent star formation in the SMC and the evolution ofHii regions are discussed.  相似文献

From high-resolution maps of the spiral galaxies NGC 3992 and NGC 4321, obtained with the TAURUS camera at the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope, we have inferred: (a) The total number of separately identifiableHii regions in their discs classified according to their membership of a spiral arm or the interarm disc, (b) the radial distribution ofHii regions, (c) the frequency distribution of diameters ofHii regions, (d) the luminosity function; each parameter rpesented separately for theHii regions in the arms and in the interarm region, showing the differences between them. From these observations we have also derived the radial dependence of the product of the filling factor, the electron density, and the ionized hydrogen density, which does not appear to change between arm and interarm disc.Paper presented at the 11th European Regional Astronomical Meetings of the IAU on New Windows to the Universe, held 3–8 July, 1989, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.  相似文献
