Abstract:

The report sets out the work done in three categories on star formation 1 the numerical methods developed for following the evolution of collapsing gas clouds, 2 the development of initial data permitting the study of gas clouds with a wide range of initial density distributions, 3 the preliminary results obtained while developing 1 above. It is proposed to develop these studies further and to produce a catalogue of interstellar spectral features. Author
