Supernova activity for clouds with varying peak masses. In the model, clouds below a peak mass of ~ 103M⊙ do not form enough stars and have too short lifetimes to create at least one massive post main sequence star that might blast off as a supernova. Beyond that, more massive clouds are subject to an increasing number of supernovae.
