Oblique filament collisions lead to gravitational collapse of the compressed cloud when post-collision |gravitational energy| exceeds kinetic plus thermal plus magnetic energies, with lower angles and lower velocities favoring hub-filament formation.

Milky Way linear filaments exhibit no strong B-field alignment and bimodal galactic-plane orientations (parallel near midplane, perpendicular far from it), supporting a super-Alfvénic bubbly disk model.
SPH simulations of filament fragmentation indicate isotopic inhomogeneities from 1 pc filaments survive in cores at reduced levels and potentially reach circumstellar disks.
