Applied Energy, 1980
Abstract A computation method for determining the optimal size of a solar heating plant according to the criterion of minimising its total (capital plus running) cost is described. The resulting computer program calculates the energy output of a solar system as a function of the collector area and of the heat storage unit capacity, starting from ...

It may seem strange to have a chapter on the early history of astronomy and the Solar System in a book dedicated to astrophysics, a subject most people would believe applies more to stars and galaxies. However, there is a surprising amount of astrophysics that can be discussed here, as we shall see.

Scientific American, 2023
The article focuses on alternative views on the formation of the solar system as a result of analysis of meteors which suggest a more chaotic formation than older solar system models suggested. It commented on the discovery of meteors that are partially differentiated and harbored signs of an ancient magnetic field in the rock.

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2008
Water is ubiquitous in the Universe, and also in the Solar System. By setting the snow line at its condensation level in the protosolar disk, water was responsible for separating the planets into the terrestrial and the giant ones. Water ice is a major constituent of the comets and the small bodies of the outer Solar System, and water vapor is found ...

Astrophysics and Space Science, 1986
Prentice (1978a, b), in his modern Laplacian theory of the origin of the solar system, has established a scenario in which he finds the ratio of the orbital radii of successively disposed gaseous rings to be a constant ⋍ 1.69. In an attempt to understand this law in an alternative way, Rawal (1984a) assumes that during the collapse of the solar nebula ...

This chapter presents a (partial) review of the information we can derive on the early history of the Solar System from radioactive nuclei of very different half-life, which were recognized to have been present alive in pristine solids. In fact, radioactivities open for us a unique window on the evolution of the solar nebula and provide tools for ...

Our Solar System has one star, the Sun, in the center. The Sun is the only significant source of light which is generated deep in the interior of the Sun by nuclear reactions. The other major bodies in the system are the planets, too small to have the high temperature and pressure to initiate nuclear reactions inside them.

A very brief overview is presented of current conceptions about the state of the interstellar medium, interstellar clouds, and the role of the supernova in their evolution. The main information available on the physical parameters of the Solar system is presented and there is a discussion of the modern conceptions about the processes that brought about

On the Formation of the Solar System
Nature, 1971THE object of this article is to point out the significance of some properties of Jupiter (the most massive planet in the solar system) for the problem of the origin of the solar system. The mass of Jupiter is 0.001 solar masses, and its orbital eccentricity is 0.05.
