Table B.1.

Fitting data for calculating the lifetime of prestellar cores.

nn μ σn Bref (μG) Estimated lifetime of
(×105 cm−3) (×10−2 g cm−2) prestellar cores (Myr)
0.1 1.080 1.094 16.45 1.371 (∼5.777 tff)
1 1.125 3.461 49.94 0.355 (∼4.728 tff)
10 1.486 10.944 119.57 0.053 (∼2.220 tff)

Notes. Here, μ is a free parameter of our model, σn is calculated using Eq. (A.5), Bref is obtained from Eq. (3), and tff is the free-fall timescale. The estimated lifetime of prestellar cores is obtained based on Fig. 1, as shown in Fig. 2. The table is arranged in the descending order of estimated lifetime of prestellar cores.
