Tohline will investigate the collapse of gas clouds to form                     stars, using a supercomputer and extensive imaging of the                       computed gas clouds.  He will start the computed collapse either                from a series of newly discovered mathematical solutions for                    rotating clouds or from a set of solutions for massive accretion                disks.  He will trace the development of instabilities,                         especially those that cause fission into smaller pieces.                                                                                                        Stars are known to form by the collapse of small, dense                         interstellar clouds.  Rotation of the clouds is known to be                     important, in part because most stars occur in binary pairs.  But               the actual collapse of rotating clouds has not been traced.  Will               the cloud split into pieces?  How fast will the resulting stars                 rotate?  Tohline will use a supercomputer to investigate these                  questions and will use images of the computed clouds to determine               which solutions most resemble those in nature.
