ABSTRACT:Numerical calculations of the gas dynamical evolution of H II regions undergoing the champagne phase are presented. The present calculations extend to times in the evolution when the champagne rarefaction wave influences the ionized gas that lies between the ionizing star and the ionization front moving into the dense cloud. The propagation of the ionization front is studied numerically as well as in an approximative semi-analytical way for various cases.
