Initial mass function in the simulation containing ~500 protostars distributed in 429 systems and sampled 0.76 Myr after the formation of the first protostar. The dashed line is the corresponding Chabrier system IMF. We have excluded stars, which either have an accretion rate above 1 × 10-5M yr-1 (2 stars), would double their mass in less than 100 kyr (9 stars), or stars which are younger than 50 kyr (23 stars). This removes objects, which would not normally be included in an IMF, because they are heavily embedded, either due to young age or high accretion rates.

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.

Initial download of the metrics may take a while.
