Contributors Dylan Beck For group work you are limited to one partner For credit one partner needs to send in this completed file through BlackBoard while the other sends in the assignment with text containing their name and partner s name Without some form of submission to BlackBoard you will not be assigned a grade WORKSHEET 1 Instructions Choose 4 planetary systems from the data sheet and fill in the information below Use the equations from the lab to calculate the star s luminosity the distance to the inner habitability zone and the distance to the outer habitability zone The other information including star name radius and planetary distances are located in the data table Star System 1 Central Star Name 55 Cnc Star Radius in R Star Temperature in Kelvin Star Luminosity in L Inner Habitability Zone Distance in AU Outer Habitability Zone Distance in AU 0 943 5196 0 581 727 1 047 Distance to Planet 1 in AU Distance to Planet 2 in AU Distance to Planet 3 in AU Distance to Planet 4 in AU 0 1134 0 2403 0 0156 0 781 Star System 2 Central Star Name Distance to Planet 5 in AU Kepler 62 Star Radius in R Star Temperature in Kelvin Star Luminosity in L Inner Habitability Zone Distance in AU Outer Habitability Zone Distance in AU 0 62 4875 0 1945 0 4205 0 6058 Distance to Planet 1 in AU Distance to Planet 2 in AU Distance to Planet 3 in AU Distance to Planet 4 in AU Distance to Planet 5 in AU 0 0553 0 0929 0 120 0 427 0 718 Star System 3 Central Star Name 61 Vir Star Radius in R Star Temperature in Kelvin Star Luminosity in L Inner Habitability Zone Distance in AU Outer Habitability Zone Distance in AU 0 94 5530 0 7404 0 8204 1 1819 Distance to Planet 1 in AU Distance to Planet 2 in AU Distance to Planet 3 in AU 0 0502 0 2175 0 476 Star System 4 Distance to Planet 4 in AU Central Star Name Distance to Planet 5 in AU KOI 82 Star Radius in R Star Temperature in Kelvin Star Luminosity in L Inner Habitability Zone Distance in AU Outer Habitability Zone Distance in AU 0 76 4810 0 2770 0 5018 0 7229 Distance to Planet 1 in AU Distance to Planet 2 in AU 3 92 0 128 Distance to Planet 3 in AU Distance to Planet 4 in AU Distance to Planet 5 in AU WORKSHEET 2 V M E INNER System 1 name c 55 Cnc e M OUTER outer f 0 5 b 1 0 1 5 2 0 1 0 1 5 2 0 inner System 2 name B c d Kepler 62 f e inner 0 5 outer System 3 name b c 61 Vir outer d 0 5 System 4 name inner 1 0 1 5 2 0 1 0 1 5 2 0 KOI 82 d c b 0 5 inner outer WORKSHEET 3 Post Lab Questions For each of the following questions where a numerical answer is required clearly show what equation you are using what numbers you are plugging into the variables and what the final units of the answer are 1 The number of Hot Jupiters in your stellar systems 1 55 Cnc b 2 Number of habitable Earths in your stellar systems None 3 Number of gas giants gas dwarfs in the habitable zone in your stellar systems 1 55 Cnc f 4 Total number of possible habitable worlds in your stellar systems 1 5 Extrapolate to the whole Milky Way Galaxy How many habitable worlds are there in the Galaxy There is believed to be about 40 billion planets that are the right size and in the habitable zone to their respective stars
