Same Planet, Different Worlds

چکیده
In this interview with social scientist Paul H. Ray, Ph.D., Pathways associate editor Lisa Reagan connects the dots between her insights from 15 years of holistic family wellness advocacy and Ray’s investigation of Cultural Creatives, a growing segment of the Western population transforming mainstream culture. Driven by their holistic values, integrated worldview and ability to synthesize vast amounts of information with an inner vision (insight) of wholeness, Cultural Creatives are, in Ray’s words, an “emerging wisdom culture.”

The habitable zone of Earth-mass planets around 47 UMa: results for land and water worlds
In a previous paper, we showed that Earth-type habitable planets around 47 UMa are in principle possible if a distinct set of conditions is warranted. These conditions include that the Earth-type planets have successfully formed and are orbitally stable and, in addition, that the 47 UMa star–planet system is relatively young (96 Gyr). We now extend this study by considering Earth-like planets w...

The motivations for the search foròther worlds' are presented. A comparitive review is made of diierent techniques for their detection. Special attention is paid to the planet parameters which can be derived in each method. The recent ndings and their rst consequences are discussed.
متن کاملOcean Planet or Thick Atmosphere: on the Mass-radius Relationship for Solid Exoplanets with Massive Atmospheres
The bulk composition of an exoplanet is commonly inferred from its average density. For small planets, however, the average density is not unique within the range of compositions. Variations of a number of important planetary parameters—which are difficult or impossible to constrain from measurements alone—produce planets with the same average densities but widely varying bulk compositions. We ...
متن کاملCan Terrestrial Planets Form in Hot-Jupiter Systems?
Models of terrestrial planet formation in the presence of a migrating giant planet have challenged the notion that hot-Jupiter systems lack terrestrial planets. We briefly review this issue and suggest that hot-Jupiter systems should be prime targets for future observational missions designed to detect Earth-sized and potentially habitable worlds.
متن کاملExotic Earths: forming habitable worlds with giant planet migration.
Close-in giant planets (e.g., "hot Jupiters") are thought to form far from their host stars and migrate inward, through the terrestrial planet zone, via torques with a massive gaseous disk. Here we simulate terrestrial planet growth during and after giant planet migration. Several-Earth-mass planets also form interior to the migrating jovian planet, analogous to recently discovered "hot Earths....
