Abstract: | The dynamics of protostellar envelopes around forming massive stars is analysed and the main stages of the process of massive star formation are identified. It is shown that massive stars can be formed in the outer layers of giant molecular cloud cores. Special conditions are necessary for the formation of massive stars. |
