Clumpiness in molecular clouds and statistics of embedded sources.
COMERON F., TORRA J. and RIEKE G.H.
Abstract (from CDS):
Statistical studies of stellar populations embedded in molecular clouds are affected by several potential biases. In this paper we use a simple model of a clumpy molecular cloud to evaluate how star counts, from which volume densities are derived, can be altered by background source contamination and by an incorrect evaluation of the sampled volume in a magnitude limited survey, due to the clumpiness of the embedding cloud.
