摘要

Extensive photoionization model grids are computed for single-star H Ⅱ regions using stellar atmosphere models from the WM-Basic code. Mid-IR emission-line intensities are predicted, and diagnostic diagrams of [Ne Ⅲ/Ⅱ] and [S Ⅳ/Ⅲ] excitation ratios are built, taking into account the metallicities of both the star and the H Ⅱ region. The diagrams are used in conjunction with Galactic H Ⅱ region observations obtained with the Infrared Space Observatory to determine the effective temperature T_(eff) of the exciting O stars and the mean ionization parameter U, where T_(eff) and U are found to increase and decrease, respectively, with the metallicity of the H Ⅱ region represented by the Ne/Ne_☉ ratio. No evidence is found for gradients of T_(eff) or U with Galactocentric distance R_(Gai). The observed excitation sequence with R_(Gal) is mainly due to the effect of the metallicity gradient on the spectral ionizing shape, upon which the effect of an increase in T_(eff) with Z is superposed. We show that not taking properly into account the effect of metallicity on the ionizing shape of the stellar atmosphere would lead to an apparent decrease of T_(eff) with Z and an increase of T_(eff) with R_(Gal).
