Abstract
The spontaneous versus triggered star formation and their dependence on the sound speed in gaseous discs are discussed. The thin shell approximation is extended to thick shells: we explore dependence of the fragmentation process on the pressure in the ambient medium and follow the later evolution of fragments showing oligarchic accretion. Triggering by radiation and by spiral arms is also mentioned.
