Scientific paper

The paper presents the results of calculations of the evolution of the density distribution of a 'gas of clouds' under the influence of viscosity. Due to this viscosity effect, ring-shaped formations consisting of clouds must develop in spiral galaxies. It is suggested that the occurrence of massive molecular complexes in the ring-shaped structures may be attributed to the gravitational instability of the 'gas of clouds'.
