Possible reasons for solar oddity
Bengt Gustafsson

I shall comment on various possible explanations for the departure of the solar elemental composition from that of the majority of solar-type stars:

  1. dust cleansing of primordial solar nebula,
  2. cleansing of the protoplanetary disk by planet formation in combination with a long-lived disk or early retraction of the deep solar convection zone, e.g. due to episodic accretion
  3. galactic chemical evolution in combination with migration.
Some suggestions for further clarifying studies will be given.
