Formation of Comets

Universe, 2022
Questions regarding how primordial or pristine the comets of the solar system are have been an ongoing controversy. In this review, we describe comets’ physical evolution from dust and ice grains in the solar nebula to the contemporary small bodies in ...

Insights on the Sun Birth Environment in the Context of Star Cluster Formation in Hub–Filament Systems

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Cylindrical molecular filaments are observed to be the main sites of Sunlike star formation, while massive stars form in dense hubs at the junction of multiple filaments.

The Eons of Chaos and Hades [PDF]

Solid Earth, 2010
We propose the <i>Chaotian Eon</i> to demarcate geologic time from the origin of the Solar System to the Moon-forming impact on Earth. This separates the solar system wide processes of planet formation from the subsequent divergent evolution ...

Mesoscale Structure in the Solar Wind

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Structures in the solar wind result from two basic mechanisms: structures injected or imposed directly by the Sun, and structures formed through processing en route as the solar wind advects outward and fills the heliosphere. On the largest scales, solar

A new quantum model of the magnetic field of the Hot Earth, Moon and terrestrial planets [PDF]

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2021
Distribution of Pand Swaves velocities in the Earth’s inner core suggests that its matter has been quantum entangled since the origin of the Earth and the Solar system.

SIGNATURES OF RECENT ASTEROID DISRUPTIONS IN THE FORMATION AND EVOLUTION OF SOLAR SYSTEM DUST BANDS [PDF]

The Astrophysical Journal, 2015
We have performed detailed dynamical modeling of the structure of a faint dust band observed in coadded IRAS data at an ecliptic latitude of 17$^{\circ}$ that convincingly demonstrates that it is the result of a relatively recent (significantly less than 1 Ma) disruption of an asteroid and is still in the process of forming.
