On the Mechanism of Accretion by Stars
Open accessAbstract
The mechanism of accretion is investigated in detail for the case in which the interstellar material contains a sufficient proportion of molecules to ensure that the temperature is everywhere small. It is found that there is no unique steady-state solution and that the situation at any given time depends on the perturbations suffered by the system. The gravitational interaction between the interstellar material and the stars leads not only to an increase in the masses of the stars but also to a decrease in their peculiar velocities. The importance of these effects to stellar dynamics and to the evolution of the stars is briefly discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
