On the Origin of the Solar System [PDF]
3. The essential requirement that the nova must satisfy in the above theory is that the total mass in the form of diffuse gaseous material must be of the order of 1/10 the solar mass, which requirement seems to be consistent with the observations of novae.

Challenges in the Development of Micro Gas Turbines for Concentrated Solar Power Systems [PDF]
Parabolic solar dish systems have gained more interest recently as a reliable way for harnessing the solar power in form of electricity. Micro gas turbines can be usedas engines in such system to convert the heat available from the solar

The Kuiper Belt and Other Debris Disks
We discuss the current knowledge of the Solar system, focusing on bodies in the outer regions, on the information they provide concerning Solar system formation, and on the possible relationships that may exist between our system and the debris disks of ...

Since the formulation of the problem by Newton, and during three centuries, astronomers and mathematicians have sought to demonstrate the stability of the Solar System. Thanks to the numerical experiments of the last two decades, we know now that the motion of the planets in the Solar System is chaotic, which prohibits any accurate prediction of their ...

Feedback stabilization of displaced periodic orbits : Application to binary asteroid [PDF]
This paper investigates displaced periodic orbits at linear order in the circular restricted Earth-Moon system (CRTBP), where the third massless body utilizes a hybrid of solar sail and a solar electric propulsion (SEP).
