    1920Most of these had densities of at least 800 (twice the mean) with several having densities of 1600 and a few with densities of 3200. The ones with a density of 800 would be stable to collapse and those with a density of 1600 have Jeans lengths of .26 pc and could potentially collapse - although the timescales would be similar to the timescales for the global collapse. This is in fact what we see... Two particles form before the entire thing collapses and then forms a binary system with periodic ejections of material.  Not sure if this is a protection issue, or material being slingshotted from the secondary.  Eventually the particles become unbound and begin to seemingly accelerate upwards.  This may be related to the way periodic BC's handle self gravity (which won't be a problem in 3D), or may be related to the particle kick #157.

    27 So i modified the mean density to be 10, set [[latex($\alpha=-2$)]] so [[latex($\beta-1$)]] and strengthened the perturbation. Below is the initial density perturbation and here is the [attachment:hires.gif movie]

    112117Here is another movie of density that zooms in as the cloud collapses.  A few bugs were fixed and phi-gradient refinement was used and there is no longer an explosion...

    146151If the kinetic energy is put into solenoidal motions with a spectral index [[latex($\alpha = -1$)]] so that [[latex($\hat{v}(k)\propto k^{\alpha}$)]], then energy dissipates fairly quickly and the whole thing collapses

    154158And here is another movie with phi-gradient refinement and with a steeper initial velocity profile [[latex($\hat{v}(k)\propto k^{-3/2}$)]] so that [[latex($E_{1D}(k) \propto k^{-2}$)]]
