"Formation of Planetary Systems"


Abstract:

Exploration of objects in the outskirts of our solar system, detection of planets around other stars, and findings of disks accompanying most young suns revolutionized our understanding of planet formation. We discuss these observational advances and review our recent theories.

Light refreshments will be served in the faculty lounge at 3:30.
