Planetary formation by the accumulation of sub-condensations

Creators

Description

The accumulation of a large number of cloudlets into a few condensations is investigated, principally by means of a computer simulation of the process. It is concluded that it is possible to form near coplanar systems but that many collisions are required to bring about this state.
