Abstract

Our planetary system still has several unsolved riddles. One of them is the Titius-Bode law. With the aid of this law, it is easy to find the distances of planets from the sun. For many astronomers, this is coincidence. They argue that there is no known physical mechanism that generates a particular sequence of planets’ distances. However, if one investigates the structure of the law, it quickly becomes clear that the Titius-Bode law is directly connected with the formation of planets. Our planets did not come into existence through so-called accretion. At the beginning of its existence, the sun was presumably a T-Tauri star. These are young stars in the process of their formation. They pulsate irregularly, thereby accelerating clouds of plasma in the surrounding dust disk. Each of these eruptions thus generated a planet. This of course goes much more quickly than if they had to be formed from the dust of planetary disks. This new theory not only describes how the planets and the distances of the planets came into existence. It also gives a new description of how the moon came into existence, the cause for large moon craters, the slow rotation of Venus, the formation of the asteroid belt, the high iron content of the planet Mercury, and the sun’s loss of rotational impulse, among other things.

  • This goes much more quickly than if they had to be formed from the dust of planetary disks. This new theory describes how the planets and the distances of the planets came into existence.

  • Astronomers observed that young sun-like stars in our cosmic neighbourhood have a stellar wind that is up to one-thousand times greater than our sun has at this time

  • With an extrasolar planetary system, enormous gas planets were discovered that go around their mother star in a very close orbit of only a few days. – It is conceivable that the rotational speed of the emerging star became so strong because of the great material influx from the disc that the star lost a part of its external mass due to the high centripetal inertia and supported by a star eruption

Summary

Introduction

It was already mentioned in 1766 by the German astronomer Johann Daniel Titius. Because there is no certain explanation for this rule, the majority of astronomers assume that this law is a coincidence. Lineweaver of the Australian National University in Canberra analysed 31 extrasolar planetary systems and noticed that they follow the Titius-Bode formula at least more precisely than the celestial bodies in our planetary system. Of the 31 systems investigated, the planets in 26 systems lined up according to the Titius-Bode law but more precisely than in the solar system. It is unlikely that the Titius-Bode law is based on a coincidence. Exponent n has the values -∞, 0, 1, 2,
