“…The Burbidges have pointed out that there is a need to test whether Salpeter's initial mass function fits the statistics of the mass ratios in binary stars. 6 We will show here that it is the initial mass function given in Table I rather than Salpeter's law, equation (1), that is consistent with these statistics.…”

“…More quantitative ones (considering also the process of fragmentation) were given by Ebert (1955), Bonner (1956), and McCrea (1957), partly in the context of condensing material in an expanding universe. That normal clouds would have too much angular moment to contract easily had been one of the reasons for doubting the reality of current star formation, and the problem of contraction of clouds with both angular momentum and magnetic fields (and whether the combination was better or worse than one by itself) was discussed by Spitzer (1948a), Mestel and Spitzer (1956), Burbidge and Burbidge (1958), and especially by Mestel (1965) and many others since. The first "modern" treatment of the contraction of an isolated cloud is generally credited to Larson (1972).…”
