Conventional outlooks on the origin and evolution of galaxies

Abstract

As not many extended summaries have been in the past undertaken, we have thought it could be of some utility to make a kind of summary on the conventional views concerning the origin and the evolution of galaxies, with the main aim of stressing both their shortcomings or their partial successes and bridging, as far as possible, the gaps of understanding or of linking between the different chronological phases of the whole process and the different theoretical emphasis concerning the physical factors of importance for the interpretation of the observational field. As a starting point for our work, let us formulate the whole problem according to two different questions, the tentative answer to which constitute the main streams of research in this field of science: 1) Why do galaxies exist. and 2) Why, as they exist in fact, are they as we observe they are. These two questions are the basic starting points to the understanding of the already mentioned B) cosmological phase and C) astrophysical phase. Our summary will be successively concerned with these two stages.
