Simulation of the gravitational collapse and fragmentation of rotating molecular clouds

In this paper we study the process of the subsequent (runaway) fragmentation of a rotating isothermal Giant Molecular Cloud (GMC) complex. Our own Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) gas-dynamical model successfully reproduces the observed Cloud Mass-distribution Function (CMF) in our Galaxy (even...
