The nebular hypothesis is the most widely accepted model in the field of cosmogony to explain the formation and evolution of the Solar System (as well as other planetary systems). It suggests the Solar System is formed from gas and dust orbiting the Sun which clumped up together to form the planets.
A major difficulty was that, in this supposition, turbulent dissipation took place over the course of a single millennium, which did not give enough time for planets to form. The nebular hypothesis was first proposed in 1734 by Swedish scientist Emanuel Swedenborg [6] and later expanded upon by Prussian philosopher Immanuel Kant in 1755.
It was proposed as a replacement for the Laplacian version of the nebular hypothesis that had prevailed since the 19th century. The hypothesis was based on the idea that a star passed close enough to the sun early in its life to cause tidal bulges to form on its surface, which along with the internal process that leads to solar prominences ...
1953 – P. C. Vaidya Newtonian time in general relativity, Nature, 171, p260. 1954 – Suraj Gupta sketches how to derive the equations of general relativity from quantum field theory for a massless spin-2 particle (the graviton). [122] His procedure was later carried out by Stanley Deser in 1970. [123] [124]
The research-based design process is a research process proposed by Teemu Leinonen, [1] [2] inspired by several design theories. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] It is strongly oriented towards the building of prototypes and it emphasizes creative solutions, exploration of various ideas and design concepts, continuous testing and redesign of the design solutions.
Objects named nebulae belong to four major groups. Before their nature was understood, galaxies ("spiral nebulae") and star clusters too distant to be resolved as stars were also classified as nebulae, but no longer are. H II regions, large diffuse nebulae containing ionized hydrogen; Planetary nebulae; Supernova remnants (e.g., Crab Nebula ...
The original core of the Nice model is a triplet of papers published in the general science journal Nature in 2005 by an international collaboration of scientists. [4] [5] [6] In these publications, the four authors proposed that after the dissipation of the gas and dust of the primordial Solar System disk, the four giant planets (Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune) were originally found on ...
ʻOumuamua appears to have come from roughly the direction of Vega in the constellation Lyra. [ 50 ] [ 51 ] [ 56 ] [ 57 ] Its incoming direction of motion is 6° from the solar apex (the direction of the Sun's movement relative to local stars), the most likely direction from which objects from outside the Solar System would come.
