We present a minimum hypothesis model for an IMF that resembles a lognormaldistribution at low masses but has a distinct power-law tail. Even if thecentral limit theorem ensures a lognormal distribution of condensation massesat birth, a power-law tail in the distribution arises due to accretion from theambient cloud, coupled with a non-uniform (exponential) distribution ofaccretion times.Comment: 2 pages, 1 figure, to appear in IMF@50, eds.
