Star formation

the collapse of a singular isothermal sphere in which an expansion wave moves outward and infall begins from the centre, giving a constant accretion rate.

In star formation, inside-out collapse refers to the collapse of a singular isothermal sphere in which an expansion wave moves outward and infall begins from the centre, giving a constant accretion rate. This meaning comes from Shu (1977) in The Astrophysical Journal.[1]
