Aug 17, 2015 at 21:25 | comment | added | Lucy Meadow | HDE - do you think that due to being the densest part of the instellar medium, that these clouds have gravitation | |
Aug 17, 2015 at 17:27 | comment | added | HDE 226868 | @LucyMeadow That's true. | |
Aug 17, 2015 at 17:26 | comment | added | Lucy Meadow | True. But they are the densest regions of space (i.e. their size --> volume/mass | |
Aug 16, 2015 at 14:17 | comment | added | HDE 226868 | @LucyMeadow I'm not an astrophysicist, so my opinion isn't that good. But while the clouds are dense in comparison to the ISM, they're still not dense when compared to other celestial bodies. | |
Aug 16, 2015 at 10:29 | comment | added | Lucy Meadow | Thank you HDE. I agree the 2nd one seems more plausible, given the lifespan (if that is correct). But I was wondering whether you found it convincing? It seems weak to me. I mean, those clouds are the most dense regions of space with up to thousands of times the mass of the solar system. | |
