They are formed when radiation causes gas and dust particles to expand.

They are formed when gas particles separate themselves from dust particles.

Detailed explanation-1: -Dust clumps become pebbles, pebbles become larger rocks that grind together to expand. The presence of gas helps particles of solid material stick together. Some break apart, but others hold on. These are the building blocks of planets, sometimes called “planetesimals."
Detailed explanation-2: -Stars, like our own Sun, have not always been around. Stars are born and die over millions or even billions of years. Stars form when regions of dust and gas in the galaxy collapse due to gravity.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Sun and the planets formed together, 4.6 billion years ago, from a cloud of gas and dust called the solar nebula. A shock wave from a nearby supernova explosion probably initiated the collapse of the solar nebula. The Sun formed in the center, and the planets formed in a thin disk orbiting around it.
