Abstract
Context. Stars form in dense, dusty clumps of molecular clouds, but little is known about their origin, their evolution, and their detailed physical properties. In particular, the relationship between the mass distribution of these clumps (also known as the “clump mass function”, or CMF) and the stellar initial mass function (IMF) is still poorly understood.
