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…

Characterizing Earth analogs may require a moderate or high-resolution spectrograph

Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Sarah Steiger, Corey Spohn +16

A primary goal of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is to detect and measure the abundance of biosignature molecules, such as water (H2O) and oxygen (O2), in the atmosphere of…

Imaging Venus-like Worlds: Spectral, Polarimetric, and UV Diagnostics for the Habitable Worlds Observatory

Stephen R. Kane, Kimberly M. Bott, Kenneth E. Goodis Gordon +15

Understanding planetary habitability requires a comparative approach that explores the divergent evolutionary outcomes of Earth and Venus. The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) wi…

Multi-bandpass Photometry for Exoplanet Atmosphere Reconnaissance (MPEAR) with the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) -- I. Differentiating Earth from Neptunes During Discovery

Eleonora Alei, Avi M. Mandell, Miles H. Currie +7

As the architecture for the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) is being developed, it is crucial to optimize the observing strategies for a survey to detect and characterize Earth-…

Direct imaging characterization of cool gaseous planets

Michiel Min, Jo Barstow, Laura C. Mayorga +19

Cool gas giant exoplanets, particularly those with properties similar to those of Jupiter and Saturn, remain poorly characterized due to current observational limitations. This whi…

The Exospace Weather Frontier

R. O. Parke Loyd, Evgenya L. Shkolnik, Joseph Lazio +26

Space weather is among the most powerful and least understood forces shaping planetary atmospheres. In our Solar System, we observe its effects directly: atmospheric escape, chemic…

The SPACE Program. I. The featureless spectrum of HD 86226 c challenges sub-Neptune atmosphere trends

K. Angelique Kahle, Jasmina Blecic, Reza Ashtari +26

Sub-Neptune exoplanets are the most abundant type of planet known today. As they do not have a Solar System counterpart, many open questions exist about their composition and forma…

Detecting Surface Liquid Water on Exoplanets

Nicolas B. Cowan, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, Renyu Hu +2

Planets with large bodies of water on their surface will have more temperate and stable climates, and such planets are the ideal places for life-as-we-know-it to arise and evolve.…

The Need for Laboratory Measurements and Ab Initio Studies to Aid Understanding of Exoplanetary Atmospheres

Jonathan J. Fortney, Tyler D. Robinson, Shawn Domagal-Goldman +85

We are now on a clear trajectory for improvements in exoplanet observations that will revolutionize our ability to characterize their atmospheric structure, composition, and circul…
