Abstract
Calculations of the formation of nonequal mass binary and multiple systems are presented. The systems are the result of the collapse and fragmentation of rotating elongated clouds which is followed using a three-dimensional smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code. The rotation is parameterized by components parallel and perpendicular to the cloud's major axis. The effects of the rotation, the initial Jeans number J o (ratio of the absolute value of gravitational to thermal energies), and the cloud's initial density profile are investigated
