Magnetohydrodynamic Collapse

Magnetohydrodynamic Collapse is a theoretical model in protostellar evolution that describes the gravitational collapse of magnetized, ionized molecular cloud cores under the coupled effects of magnetic fields and fluid dynamics, distinguishing it from hydrodynamic collapse models by incorporating magnetic pressure, tension, and ambipolar diffusion as critical regulators of angular momentum and mass infall.
