Abstract

Context. Photodissociation regions (PDRs) contain a large portion of all of the interstellar matter in galaxies. Classical examples include the boundaries between ionized regions and molecular clouds in regions of massive star-formation, marking the point where all of the photons that are energetic enough to ionize hydrogen have been absorbed.
