Pancake Model A model of galaxy formation in which the first structures to condense out of the smooth background of primordial gas were very large in size.
Pancake Model - A model for the formation of clusters of galaxies in which protoclusters form first and then fragment into individual galaxies ...
density of matter depends on the size of the volume over which the average is performed. In a homogeneous model, on the other hand, the average density is independent of the size of the volume over which the average is performed. (See pancake model.) ...
