Lognormal Initial Mass Function

The Lognormal Initial Mass Function is a statistical model of stellar initial mass distribution wherein the mass spectrum is described by a lognormal probability density function, distinguished from other forms of the Initial Mass Function by its mathematical characterization of low- to intermediate-mass star formation prevalence.
