DISCLAIMER: The larger the aperture, the more light a telescope will gather and the fainter the object you can see. Here is a range of magnitudes you might expect to see. Given excellent sky conditions and good optics, a well trained eye can sometimes add up to 0.8 magnitude to these values. Limiting Magnitude depends on much more than the instruments aperture. ...

Abstract . A self-consistent model for the dynamical and chemical evolution of dense interstellar clouds is examined. The model includes the basic atomic and molecular constituents of dense clouds and the reactions in which they are involved. ... The results of one-dimensional modeling of the early stages of collapse of protostellar clouds of different masses under the action of ultraviolet radiation are presented. Astrophysical applications of the results obtained are discussed. ...
