| Tóm tắt: | The history of planet formation and detection is long and complicated, and numerous
books and review articles have been written about it, e.g. Boss (1998a)
and Brush (1990). In this introductory review, we concentrate on only a few specific
aspects of the subject, under the general assumption that the Kant–Laplace
nebular hypothesis provides the correct framework for planet formation. The first
recognized “theory” of planet formation was the vortex theory of Descartes, which,
along with related subsequent developments, is treated in Section 1.2. Magnetic
effects (Section 1.3) were of great significance in the solution of one of the major
problems of the nebular hypothesis, namely, that it predicted a very rapidly rotating
Sun. The early histories of the two theories of giant planet formation that are under
current debate, the disk gravitational instability theory and the core accretion-gas
capture theory, are discussed in Section 1.4 and Section 1.5, respectively. In the
final section, 1.6, certain specific examples in the history of the search for extrasolar
planets are reviewed. |
