Physical Processes in the Early Solar System: Evidence from Space Rocks
Physical processes active in the protoplanetary disk included gravitational instabilities (spiral waves), magnetorotational instabilities, meridional transport, vertical turbulent mixing, radiative transfer. Some temporal and spatial combination of such processes drove stellar accretion and planet formation in our (and other) solar system. Constraints on physical-chemical models are provided by the phenomenology of chondritic meteorites, interplanetary dust particles, and cometary materials (rocks), coupled with observations of young stellar disks (light). This evidence, recent results, current conundrums, and the status of 3D magnetohydrodynamic models of protoplanetary disks will be discussed.
