Scientific paper

The origin of the mean particle density observed in globular clusters can be attributed entirely to thermal fragmentation of the protoclusters, for only clusters with a mean particle density in the range 0.4 to 2000 per cu cm would have been formed (assuming a heavy-element abundance 0.01 solar abundances). As the clusters develop, thermal instability would lead directly to star formation.
