Evolution of the terrestrial group of planets
Abstract
The process of evolution of the internal planets of the solar system is considered with the aid of a model of the gravitational differentiation of an originally homogeneous and spherically symmetrical planet consisting of heavy 'core' and light 'mantle' substance. Some structural and energetic parameters of the planets at all evolution stages, as well as dependences of these parameters on time are computed.
