Thermal Effects of Ambipolar Diffusion during the Gravitational Collapse of a Radiative Cooling Filament

In this study, we consider the effects of ambipolar diffusion during the gravitational collapse of a radiative cooling filamentary molecular cloud. Two separate configurations of magnetic field, i.e., axial and toroidal, are considered in the presence of the ambipolar diffusion for a radiative cooli...
