Spectral Energy Distribution Analysis for Habitable Worlds Observatory Target Stars
Stephen R. Kane, Kaspar von Braun, Tara Fetherolf +1
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will directly image and characterize planets potentially similar to Earth orbiting nearby stars. Accurate stellar properties, particularly ef…
Early Exploration of the Scientific Discovery Space for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Courtney D. Dressing, Danica Adams, Evelyne Alecian +324
The paper summarizes 70 science cases for the proposed NASA Habitable Worlds Observatory, outlining the observational needs across four scientific pillars and detailing required ca…
Enhancing WISE Infrared Imaging to Spitzer Resolution Using Deep Learning Super-Resolution
Saeed Rezaee, Shoubaneh Hemmati, Bahram Mobasher +4
The paper introduces a deep‑learning model that upscales WISE infrared images to near‑Spitzer resolution, achieving about 4.6× higher spatial detail and improved flux recovery and…
Orbit Refinement of WASP-18 b and Evidence Against the Existence of WASP-18 c
Avinash Salguneswaran Nediyedath, Kyle A. Pearson, Tara Fetherolf +1
We present an updated transit ephemeris for the exoplanet WASP-18 b and critically examine the existence of a proposed second planet, WASP-18 c. Using 205 transit light curves from…
HWO Target Stars and Systems: Activity and Rotation Catalog (ARC) of Potential Target Stars for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Tara Fetherolf, Arvind F. Gupta, Elisabeth R. Newton +7
A major goal of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is to precisely characterize exoplanets and their atmospheres. However, magnetic activity from an exoplanet's host star can c…
Planetary Habitability Under the Light of a Rapidly Changing Star
Tara Fetherolf, Sadie G. Welter, Colby M. Ostberg +3
Planetary atmospheric energy budgets primarily depend on stellar incident flux. However, stellar variability can have major consequences for the evolution of planetary climates. In…
