Scientific paper

We argue that it is necessary to understand how clouds form to understand the initial conditions leading to star formation. Large-scale flows that sweep up gas in the interstellar medium form clouds, which immediately start their global collapse. At the same time, such flows are subject to various instabilities which can form protostellar clumps that contract faster, proceeding to a rapid, local but distributed star formation before global collapse dominates.
