Fig. 4.
Diagram illustrating how the gas fragments during the turbulent inertial cascade. When a structure formed at the scale k reaches the Bonnor–Ebert mass, it breaks into smaller structures at the next level, 2k. The mass transfer rate, Ṁk, between scales is given by Eq. (12). The largest structures are fed at a rate, Ṁfrag, as discussed in Sect. 4.1 and given by Eq. (14).
