Spatial Variation Of The Initial Mass Function

Spatial Variation of the Initial Mass Function is a theoretical construct in astrophysics that characterizes the variation in the distribution of stellar masses at birth as a function of galactic or interstellar environment, distinguishing it from a universal or invariant initial mass function.
