Signatures of Mass Segregation from Competitive Accretion and Monolithic Collapse
The two main competing theories proposed to explain the formation of massive (>10 M _⊙ ) stars—competitive accretion and monolithic core collapse—make different observable predictions for the environment of the massive stars during, and immediately after, their formation. Proponents of competitiv...
