Scientific paper

In view of the possibility that vertical convection and turbulence can be suppressed in the early phase of a solar nebula because of a reduction of dust opacity's temperature dependence that is caused by rapid dust particle growth, a reexamination is made of dust particle settling and growth phenomena in the subsequent, laminar phase of the solar nebula. The settling process is noted to be divided into an early, gas-dominated phase and a later dust-dominated one. Dust particles grow to the greatest size and with the greatest speed in a radially sweeping particle path phase. Most of the settling time, however, is spent in the early vertical settling phase.
