Searching for Planets Orbiting Alpha Centauri A with the James Webb Space Telescope
Charles Beichman, Marie Ygouf, Jorge Llop Sayson +18
Alpha Centauri A is the closest solar-type star to the Sun and offers an excellent opportunity to detect the thermal emission of a mature planet heated by its host star. The MIRI c…
The Potential of Exozodiacal Disks Observations with the WFIRST Coronagraph Instrument
B. Mennesson, V. Bailey, J. Kasdin +60
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) will be the first high-performance stellar coronagraph using active wavefront control for deep starli…
An Exo-Kuiper Belt and An Extended Halo around HD 191089 in Scattered Light
Bin Ren, Élodie Choquet, Marshall D. Perrin +70
We have obtained Hubble Space Telescope STIS and NICMOS, and Gemini/GPI scattered light images of the HD 191089 debris disk. We identify two spatial components: a ring resembling K…
Cold Debris Disks as Strategic Targets for the 2020s
John Debes, Elodie Choquet, Virginie C. Faramaz +19
Cold debris disks (T200 K) are analogues to the dust in the Solar System's Kuiper belt--dust generated from the evaporation and collision of minor bodies perturbed by planets, o…
