Krinov's hypothesis

Krinov's hypothesis is a concept in astrophysics that suggests the abundance of certain isotopes (variants of elements) in cosmic dust and meteorites can reveal information about the conditions of the early solar system. It posits that variations in these isotopes are influenced by processes like supernova explosions and the formation of the solar system. By studying these isotopes, scientists can better understand the history and evolution of the solar system, including the origins of planetary bodies and the materials that contributed to their formation.
