The process that melted and formed the chondrules, millimetersized glassy beads within meteorites, has not been conclusively identified. Origin by lightning in the solar nebula is consistent with many features of chondrules, but no viable model of lightning has yet been advanced. We present a model
Thermodynamic calculations of metastable equilibria in the H-C-O system are used to evaluate the stability of condensed polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and normal alkanes in the solar nebula. The effects of temperature, total pressure (governed by H 2 ), the abundances of gaseous CO and H 2
Planetary accretion from planetesimals to protoplanets is investigated using three-dimensional N-body simulations. The effect of gas drag due to solar nebula is included and realistic-sized planetesimals with a standard material density are used, with which the growth time scale of planetesimals is
