Description
Summary:theory of tlie origin of the solar system is propounded.<br />The approach belongs to the dualistic class of theories but still retains all<br />the essential features of a monistic theory. It emphasizes the need of a<br />foreign body approaching the solar nebula for the occurrence of an instability<br />in the boundary layer of the nebular disc. This foreign body is postulated<br />to be a brother star of the Sun in the sense that both belong to a common<br />central parent body such as any two successive planets belong to<br />the Sun. The analysis gives a law of distance of the planets from tlie Sun.<br />This law is obeyed separately by both the groups of the planets more closely<br />than the existing Titius - Bode's law. The law is also found to be applicable<br />in the various satellite systems.
