SPRINGERBRIEFS IN ASTRONOMY THE INTERSTELLAR ...

This brief brings together the theoretical aspects of star formation and ionized regions with
the most up-to-date simulations and observations. Beginning with the basic theory of star
formation  the physics of expanding HII regions is reviewed in detail and a discussion on how a
massive star can give birth to tens or hundreds of other stars follows. The theoretical
description of star formation is shown in simplified and state-of-the-art numerical simulations
describing in a more clear way how feedback from massive stars can trigger star and planet
formation. This is also combined with spectacular images of nebulae taken by talented amateur
astronomers. The latter is very likely to stimulate the reader to observe the structure of
nebulae from a different point of view  and better understand the associated star formation
therein.
