The Jeans mass is named after the British physicist Sir James Jeans, who considered the process of gravitational collapse within a gaseous cloud. He was able to show that, under appropriate conditions, a cloud, or part of one, would become unstable and begin to collapse when it lacked sufficient gaseous pressure support to balance the force of gravity.

Görtler: Holmboe instability: Stratified shear flows: Jørgen Holmboe: Jeans instability: Stability of interstellar gas clouds: James Jeans: Kelvin–Helmholtz instability: Stability ...
The square root of the ratio is about 6. I dislike the formula here as it makes Jeans Mass for Bernard 68, 10.117 solar masses and Cambridge's formula makes Jeans Mass 1.662 solar masses assuming it is all molecular hydrogen not just mostly. Anyway, it is advertised in Wikipedia as a collapsing cloud a star that will be born in 200,000 years.
