Can Protostellar Outflows Set Stellar Masses?

The opening angles of some protostellar outflows appear too narrow to match the expected core–star mass efficiency (SFE) = 0.3–0.5, if the outflow cavity volume traces outflow mass, with a conical shape and a maximum opening angle near 90°. However, outflow cavities with a paraboloidal shape and wid...
