12 Oct 2015 | | Abstract: | We have developed a full numerical method to study the gas dynamics of
cometary ultra-compact (UC) H II regions, and associated photodissociation
regions (PDRs). The bow-shock and champagne-flow models with a $40.9/21.9
M_odot$ star are simulated. In the bow-shock models, the massive star is
assumed to move through dense ($n=8000~cm^{-3}$) molecular material with a
stellar velocity of $15~km~s^{-1}$. In the champagne-flow models, an
exponential distribution of density with a scale height of 0.2 pc is assumed.
The profiles of the [Ne II] 12.81mum and $H_2~S(2)$ lines from the ionized
regions and PDRs are compared for two sets of models. In champagne-flow models,
emission lines from the ionized gas clearly show the effect of acceleration
along the direction toward the tail due to the density gradient. The kinematics
of the molecular gas inside the dense shell is mainly due to the expansion of
the H II region. However, in bow-shock models the ionized gas mainly moves in
the same direction as the stellar motion. The kinematics of the molecular gas
inside the dense shell simply reflects the motion of the dense shell with
respect to the star. These differences can be used to distinguish two sets of
models. | | Source: | arXiv, 1510.3183 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
