Collapsing barrier (blue line) for different tidal field strengths based on the evolution of the triaxial ellipsoid. This barrier is compared with the barrier computed by Hennebelle & Chabrier (2008) without tides (orange line), the critical density for collapse of the c axis (green line) as in Colman & Teyssier (2020), and the global critical density, ρSV, computed from the scalar virial theorem (dashed black line).
