Science-Driven Performance Requirements for UV Coronagraph Design: Implications for O Detection in Earth-like Atmospheres
Amber V. Young, Giada Arney, Shawn Domagal-Goldman +6
Detecting biosignatures on Earth-like exoplanets from the Proterozoic era requires instrumentation capable of probing near-ultraviolet (NUV) spectral features, particularly ozone (…
Ultraviolet Reflected-Light Spectroscopy of Modern Earth Analogs with Starshade Observations
Zahra Ahmed, Stuart Shaklan, Mario Damiano +3
Characterizing rocky, habitable zone planets in reflected light is a key science objective for future direct imaging missions, and the ultraviolet (UV) is uniquely suited for suppo…
Early Exploration of the Scientific Discovery Space for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Courtney D. Dressing, Danica Adams, Evelyne Alecian +324
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is a future NASA flagship mission concept identified by the Astro2020 Decadal Survey as the highest priority for large space missions. HWO sh…
The SPACE Program II: No discernible spectral features in the transmission spectrum of the sub-Neptune HD 191939 b observed with HST/WFC3
Cyril Gapp, Lorena Acuña-Aguirre, Reza Ashtari +17
The atmospheres of sub-Neptunes provide a window into their internal structure and history, shedding light on the origin of this common, but enigmatic, class of exoplanets. However…
The Impact of Planetary Phase Functions on Exo-Earth Detectability with EXOSIMS
Searra Foote, Tyler D. Robinson, Rhonda Morgan +3
The under-development NASA Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) aims to provide breakthroughs in exoplanet science, yet the most effective approaches to modeling the detection and ch…
Retrieving the Red Edge on Earth-like Planets with Heterogeneous Clouds and Surfaces
Zachary Burr, Mario Damiano, Vincent Kofman +2
The detection and characterization of potentially habitable exoplanets is one of the chief goals of astrophysics for the coming decades. Imaging in reflected light is well suited f…
