Scientific paper

Planet formation is a very complex process through which initially sub-micron-sized dust grains evolve into rocky, icy, and giant planets. The physical growth is accompanied by chemical, isotopical, and thermal evolution of the disk material, processes important to understanding how the initial conditions determine the properties of the forming planetary systems. Here we review the principal stages of planet formation and briefly introduce key concepts and evidence types available to constrain these.
