Scientific paper

It is suggested that the source of the shocks whose induced heating may have been responsible for chrondrule formation was episodic accretion of low-mass clumps of interstellar gas onto the solar nebula. These clumps may have arisen from the inhomogeneous infall of the residual molecular cloud core, or from the return of matter ejected from the stellar wind, or perhaps from a combination of these two effects. Infalling clumps impact the protoplanetary disk at high velocity, generating the intense heat required for chondrule formation.
