| Popis: | We present causal and positional evidence of triggered star formation in bright-rimmed clouds in OB associations, e.g., Ori OB1, and Lac OB1, by photoionization. The triggering process is seen also on a much larger scale in the Orion-Monoceros Complex by the Orion-Eridanus Superbubble. We also show how the positioning of young stellar groups surrounding the H II region associated with Trumpler 16 in Carina Nebula supports the triggering process of star formation by the collect-and-collapse scenario.
