Photo-evaporation of Globulettes : Numerical hydrodynamic studies of photo-evaporating low-mass globules in the Rosette Nebula

In this work, the long-term evolution of globulettes, low-mass globules found in H II regions, is studied through numerical hydrodynamic simulations. It has been proposed by Gahm et al. (2007) that these clouds may form free-floating planetary mass objects due to shock compression, caused by heating...
