(1) HII regions expand in the molecular clouds (2) Expanding HII regions trigger the star formation and/or destroy the molecular cloud (3) HII region expands in the diffuse neutral medium Motivation THIS TALK HI H2H2 Hosokawa & Inutsuka, 2005, ApJ, 623, , ApJ, 646, 246 etc. In phases ( 3 ), what is the role of HII regions expanding in the neutral medium? 1.photoionization (HI→HII) 2. reformation of molecules (HI→H 2 ) Which is more efficient? Does the molecular formation occur?

Summary We have studied the role of the HII region expanding in the diffuse neutral medium. Numerical Calculation (in CNM) Cold (T~30K) and dense (n~1000/cc) shell is formed around HII region. H2 is formed in the shell, but CO is hardly formed. intermediate gas phase between the diffuse neutral medium and molecular clouds Analysis with CGPS data ( in W5 HII region ) Shell-like HISA feature is found around ionized gas. The dust shell shows good correlation with the shell-like HISA. Distribution of CO molecules show poor correlation with both dust shell and HISA.
