Dear Reader,

 

As we see it, the natural-historical dialectic of ‘planets versus stars’ goes like this –

 

1.  «arché» category: Proplyd-Peripheral, “Rocky” Proto-Planetary and Planetary Aglomerations, q_P, e.g., “rocky” planetessimals;

 

 

2.  first contra-category: Proplyd-Centering Proto-Stellar and Stellar Orbs, with the ‘‘‘proto-stars’’’ including “gas giant” planets and “brown dwarves”;

q_PP |-º q_S, e.g., “double-star” and, rarer, ‘multi-star formations’ of stellar multiplicity greater than two;

 

3.  first uni-category: Complex Unities of Stars & Planets; solved as fully-evolved stellar/planetary systems,

 q_ST |-º q_U, e.g., our “Solar System”.

 

 

Note: The q_PP |-º q_S solution is not so much an assertion that each proplyd star is made up out of a heterogeneous multiplicity of collided/coalesced rocky proto-planets – although such central, collisional coalescences to the point of sufficient mass-density for stellar ignition are imaginable – but more like, as in many systematic dialectics, a self-critique of the initial implicit claim that proto-planets/-planets exhaust the “kinds”, or ontological categories, of the COG Domain.

  

 

There are several ways in which category q_P and category q_S are «arithmoi» whose units exhibit oppositenesses in their essential qualities.  For two examples –

 

1.  “Rocky” planets/proto-planets are cold[er] orbs, whereas stars/proto-stars are hot[ter] orbs.

 

2.  “Rocky” planets, especially those that evolve through a planet-wide molten phase, tend to migrate their heavier elements/-atoms/molecules, such as iron atoms, to their core regions, and their lighter elements/atoms/molecules, such as O₂ and H₂O, to their ‘outermore’ or outermost layers.

 

On the contrary, stars, at least initially, tend to exhibit an inverted stratification, tending to place their heavier/heaviest elements/-atoms/molecules, e.g., their Helium atoms, in their ‘outermore’ or outermost layers, with their lighter particles/elements/atoms in their cores, e.g., Hydrogen nuclei/Hydrogen ions, or protons – and electrons – e.g., as plasmas.
