NASA experts, using the data received by telescope Spitser have discovered the process of planets formation in system HD98800 and for the first time four stars participate at once.
Such unusual process considerably surpasses a history of Solar System in which only one star influenced on a protoplanetary gas-dust disk.
NASA experts inform that HD98800 system is located in only 150 light years from us and consists of two pairs of stars revolving around each other. The gas-dust disk revolves around one of the pairs, HD98800B.
And only now NASA scientists studied HD98800B using an infra-red spectrum. They have found out thus two zones of large particles of a dust which could belong to the forming planets. Contrary to expectations, these particles are not distributed regularly that also can be caused by planets presence in the system.
However in NASA inform that it is difficult to determine all forces influencing a disk in a four-star system, and presence of forming or already formed planets is only a hypothesis.
