A nebula in your computer: simulating the physics and chemistry of an HII region

Abstract

In this contribution we discuss about numerical modeling of nebulae. In particular we emphasize on the dynamical evolution of an HII region and the chemical structure of a Photodissociation region. We do this using the Smoothed Particles Hydrodynamics code SEREN and the recently developed astrochemistry code 3D-PDR, respectively. We show an example application by simulating a cometary globule using these two codes.
