Gas Infall

Gas Infall is the astrophysical process in which interstellar gas gravitationally collapses toward a central protostellar or galactic object, distinguished from other accretion mechanisms by its large-scale, predominantly radial infall motion originating from the surrounding reservoir of diffuse matter.
