摘要
The initial orbit of a prestellar core in the resisting intercore medium is found to be an elliptic spiral round the mass centre of the parent molecular cloud (clump), with exponentially decreasing semiaxes, high constant eccentricity, and constant period. Prestellar cores are stable against perturbations caused by the parent cloud, if the corresponding mean density contrast is larger than about 10. This value defines the safe boundary of a prestellar core within its parent cloud and is in accordance with observations.
