Minimizing Star Spot Contamination of Exoplanet Transit Spectroscopy Using Alternate Normalization
Drake Deming, Miles H. Currie, Victoria S. Meadows +1
Recently, Currie et al. simulated the detection of molecules in the atmospheres of temperate rocky exoplanets transiting nearby M-dwarf stars. They simulated detections via spectra…

Exozodiacal dust as a limitation to exoplanet imaging and spectroscopy
Miles H. Currie, John Debes, Yasuhiro Hasegawa +7
In addition to planets and other small bodies, stellar systems will likely also host exozodiacal dust, or exozodi. This warm dust primarily resides in or near the habitable zone of…

Mitigating Worst-Case Exozodiacal Dust Structure in High-contrast Images of Earth-like Exoplanets
Miles H. Currie, Christopher C. Stark, Jens Kammerer +2
Detecting Earth-like exoplanets in direct images of nearby Sun-like systems brings a unique set of challenges that must be addressed in the early phases of designing a space-based…
