  • First Online:
Some Aspects of the Formation of the Solar System

Part of the book series: SpringerBriefs in Earth Sciences ((BRIEFSEARTH))

Abstract

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 the formation and evolution of the Solar system.
