The Cosmogony of Comets

Cosmogony of Generic Structures

The problem of formation of generic structures in the Universe is addressed, whereby rst the kinematics of inertial continua for coherent initial data is considered. The generalization to self{gravitating continua is outlined focused on the classiication problem of singularities and metamorphoses arising in the density eld. Self{gravity gives rise to an internal hierarchy of structures, and, dr...

The Cosmogony of Super-Massive Black Holes

• The luminosities of the quasars with the largest redshifts indicate that central BH masses of > 10 M⊙ were already present when the Universe was less than 10 years old (Barth et al. 2003). These masses are lower limits as they are based on the assumption that the BHs accrete at their Eddington limit. There is no indication that the (majority of the) sample of highest-redshift-quasar luminosit...

Cosmic Chemistry: Cosmogony

Big Bang, quarks, dark matter, general relativity, red-shift, non-Euclidean geometry, worm holes—all words that are mysterious in their details, but often translated into the vernacular with relative ease by journalists and science writers. These words form part of the core of the science of cosmology, a science in which the questions usually are easy to state, but equally difficult to answer. ...

On Cosmogony 3.1

Stardust findings favor not only the planetary origin of comets but the underlying close-binary cosmogony of the Solar system as well

The paper analyzes the findings of the Stardust mission that brought to the Earth dust from the 81P/Wild 2 coma. Just as the data obtained in the Deep Impact mission to 9P/Tempel 1, they are at odds with the universally accepted condensation/sublimation cometary paradigm. They fit rather reasonably well to the approach assuming ejection of nuclei of short-period comets from moon-like bodies of ...
