Notes.

^(a)

Age of oldest protostar at the end of the simulation.

^(b)

Total number of RADMC-3D models. Note, that because of reductions to the sample, and the fact that not all protostars are present in all snapshots, the total number of models is not equal to N_star × N_snapshot (see Sect. 2.2 for more details).
