规划下一个真正的快乐新年:基于每年整数朔望月的月球轨道演化纪元

Party Planning the Next True Happy New Year: Lunar Orbital Evolution Epochs with Integer Synodic Months Per Year

Mark Popinchalk

AI总结:

本研究基于旋回地层学等数据构建月球轨道演化模型,确定了地球轨道年包含整数个朔望月的“真正快乐新年”时期,并预测下一次将出现在2.52亿年后。

摘要:

人类喜欢聚会,新年庆祝活动是绝佳的方式。然而,依赖轨道年的新年庆祝活动与使用阴历的庆祝活动并不一致,因为目前一年中有12.368个朔望月(moonths)。有旋回地层学、古生物学和潮汐韵律层数据显示,数十亿年来,太阳、地球和月球之间角动量的相互作用改变了地球的自转速率,同时演化了月球的轨道,从而改变了阴历月的长度。利用这些数据的一个子集,并参考月球轨道演化的文献模型,我们创建了自己的简单模型,以确定“真正的快乐新年”,即在地球轨道年中存在整数个朔望月的时间段。这将使现代日历能够选择一个共同的新年日,并据此举行庆祝活动。随后,我们预测下一个真正的快乐新年将在2.52亿年后,并建议尽早开始聚会规划过程,以便我们作为一个星球能够做好准备。

英文摘要:

Humans like to party, and New Year celebrations are a great way to do that. However New Years celebrations that rely on an orbital year don't line up with those that use a Lunar Calendar, as there are currently 12.368 synodic months (moonths) in a year. There is cyclostratigraphic, paleontological, and tidal rhythmite data that reveal that over billions of years the interplay of angular momentum between the Sun, Earth and Moon has changed the rate of rotation of Earth, and at the same time evolved the orbit of the Moon, and therefore the length of a Lunar month. Using a subset of this data and referencing literature models of the Moon's orbital evolution, we create our own simple model to determine "True Happy New Years", time periods when there were an integer number of lunar synodic months in an Earth orbital year. This would allow modern calendars to pick a shared New Year's Day, and party accordingly. We then predict the next True Happy New Year to be in 252 million years, and offer suggestions to begin the party planning process early, so that we as a planet may be ready.
