N. Russell's recent book of the above title, the belief is expressed that the assumption of the sun having been originally one component of a binary star would help to resolve certain difficulties. To get rid of the other member an almost central collision with another star is invoked, but...
Origin of the Solar System Paragraph 1:The orderly nature of our solar system leads most astronomers to conclude that the planets formed at essentially the same time and from the same primordial (original) material as the Sun. This material formed a vast cloud of dust and gases called a nebu...
In its 16 years of scientific measurements, the Spitzer Space Telescope performed ground-breaking and key infrared measurements of Solar System objects near and far. Targets ranged from the smallest planetesimals to the giant planets; Spitzer helped us to reshape our understanding of these objects whi...
A key piece of evidence about the origin of the solar system is that all the planets orbit the Sun in the same direction and in nearly the same plane.As long ago as the eighteenth century, German philosopher Immanuel Kant and French scientist Pierre-Simon deLaplace independently suggested that...

The Origin of the Solar System: Progress in Understanding Accretion from its End Products 来自 Semantic Scholar 喜欢 0 阅读量: 5 作者:C Magri,E Howell,M Nolan,M Brozovi 摘要: One of the fundamental questions in astronomy is, "How do stars and their planetary systems form?" We assume ...
They formed in the hot inner protoplanetary disk and, as such, provide insights into the earliest disk dynamics and physicochemical processing of the dust and gas that accreted to form the Sun and its planetary system. Using the short-lived 26Al to 26Mg decay system, we show that bulk ...

Solar system, assemblage consisting of the Sun and those bodies orbiting it: 8 planets with about 210 known planetary satellites; many asteroids, some with their own satellites; comets and other icy bodies; and vast reaches of highly tenuous gas and dust
