AbstractAbstract
[en] Hydrogen molecules are formed in the thin dense shell of interstellar gas swept up by the expanding interstellar bubble around an early-type star with a strong stellar wind. The formation of molecules on grains is not in equilibrium with photodestruction. Theoretical calculations of the column densities of H2 in rotational levels J=0--6 agree reasonably well with Copernicus ultraviolet observations of some early-type stars. The model explains why no H2 features with column densities in the range 1015--1018 cm-1 have been observed
