Mometasone, also known as mometasone furoate, is a steroid (specifically, a glucocorticoid) medication used to treat certain skin conditions, hay fever, and asthma. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] [ 12 ] Specifically it is used to prevent rather than treat asthma attacks. [ 10 ]
The Solar System travels alone through the Milky Way in a circular orbit approximately 30,000 light years from the Galactic Center. Its speed is about 220 km/s. The period required for the Solar System to complete one revolution around the Galactic Center, the galactic year, is in the range of 220–250 million years. Since its formation, the ...
The history of scientific thought about the formation and evolution of the Solar System began with the Copernican Revolution. The first recorded use of the term " Solar System " dates from 1704. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Since the seventeenth century, philosophers and scientists have been forming hypotheses concerning the origins of the Solar System and the ...
The remaining objects of the Solar System (including the four terrestrial planets, the dwarf planets, moons, asteroids, and comets) together comprise less than 0.002% of the Solar System's total mass. [h] The Sun is composed of roughly 98% hydrogen and helium, [41] as are Jupiter and Saturn.
Many meteorites come from material that is as old as the Solar System itself, and thus provide scientists with a record from the early solar nebula. [1] Carbonaceous chondrites are especially primitive; that is they have retained many of their chemical properties since their formation 4.56 billion years ago, [ 5 ] and are therefore a major ...
Topical steroids are the topical forms of corticosteroids.Topical steroids are the most commonly prescribed topical medications for the treatment of rash and eczema.Topical steroids have anti-inflammatory properties and are classified based on their skin vasoconstrictive abilities. [1]
In 1950 Jan Oort suggested the presence of a cometary reservoir in the outer limits of the Solar System, the Oort cloud, [109] and in 1951 Gerard Kuiper argued for an annular reservoir of comets between 40 and 100 astronomical units from the Sun having formed early in the Solar System's evolution, but he did not think that such a belt still ...
The Nice 2 model is a model of the early evolution of the Solar System. The Nice 2 model resembles the original Nice model in that a late instability of the outer Solar System results in gravitational encounters between planets, the disruption of an outer planetesimal disk, and the migrations of the outer planets to new orbits. However, the ...
