Analytic relations assessing the impact of precursor knowledge and key mission parameters on direct imaging survey yield
Peter Plavchan, John E. Berberian, Stephen R Kane +3
The Habitable Worlds Observatory will attempt to image Earth-sized planets in Habitable Zone orbits around nearby Sun-like stars. In this work we explore approximate analytic yield…
New Frontiers for Terrestrial-sized to Neptune-sized Exoplanets In the Era of Extremely Large Telescopes
Ji Wang, Michael R. Meyer, Alan Boss +20
Surveys reveal that terrestrial- to Neptune-sized planets (1 4 R) are the most common type of planets in our galaxy. Detecting and characterizing such small…
Protoplanetary Disk Science Enabled by Extremely Large Telescopes
Hannah Jang-Condell, Sean Brittain, Alycia Weinberger +36
The processes that transform gas and dust in circumstellar disks into diverse exoplanets remain poorly understood. One key pathway is to study exoplanets as they form in their youn…
Identification and characterization of the host stars in planetary microlensing with ELTs
Chien-Hsiu Lee, Rachel Street, Kailash Sahu +1
Microlensing offers a unique opportunity to probe exoplanets that are temperate and beyond the snow line, as small as Jovian satellites, at extragalactic distance, and even free fl…
