Of the formation processes of the solar system, the process of growth and sedimentation of dust particles in the primordial solar nebula is investigated for a region near the Earth's orbit. The growth equation for dust particles, which are sinking as well as in thermal motion, is solved numerically in the wide mass range between 10−12 g and 106 g.
