When the star's ultraviolet radiation strikes the gases in the nebula, they heat up, giving out radiation ranging in wavelength from blue — emitted by hot oxygen in
the bubble near the star — to yellow — emitted by hot hydrogen and nitrogen.

By removing so much gas from
near the core, the
bubbles make
star formation there less likely, the team say.
We present results based on
near - infrared polarimetric observations towards the central $ \ sim $ 8» $ \ times $ 8» area of the
star - forming region RCW57A which hosts an Hii region, a filament, and a bipolar
bubble.
Assuming that the Local
Bubble or Chimney was created by the supernovae of young, massive
stars during the past few million years, some astronomers have been looking for their probable source among the 27 member B
stars of the Pleiades moving group, which are located towards the
nearest part of Gould's Belt of massive hot, OB - type
stars (more discussion in pdf).
