Early Exploration of the Scientific Discovery Space for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Courtney D. Dressing, Danica Adams, Evelyne Alecian +324
The paper summarizes 70 science cases for the proposed NASA Habitable Worlds Observatory, outlining the observational needs across four scientific pillars and detailing required ca…
On the synergetic use of Ariel and JWST for exoplanet atmospheric science
Quentin Changeat, Pierre-Olivier Lagage, Giovanna Tinetti +27
This paper explores the potential for strategic synergies between the JWST and the Ariel telescopes, two flagship observatories poised to revolutionise the study of exoplanet atmos…
The power of polarimetry for characterising exoplanet atmospheres, clouds, and surfaces with NASA's Habitable Worlds Observatory
Katy L. Chubb, Mei Ting Mak, Joanna K. Barstow +4
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO), planned for launch in the 2040s, represents the next major step in exoplanet characterisation. HWO will, for the first time, enable detailed…
Transiting exoplanets as the immediate future for population-level atmospheric science
Joanna K. Barstow, Hannah R. Wakeford, Sarah L. Casewell +1
The transit method, during which a planet's presence is inferred by measuring the reduction in flux as it passes in front of its parent star, is a highly successful exoplanet detec…
Exoplanet characterization with NASA's Habitable Worlds Observatory
Joanna K. Barstow, Beth Biller, Mei Ting Mak +3
Exoplanet atmosphere characterization has seen revolutionary advances over the last few years, providing us with unique insights into atmospheric chemistry, dynamics and planet for…
Data availability and requirements relevant for the Ariel space mission and other exoplanet atmosphere applications
Katy L. Chubb, Séverine Robert, Clara Sousa-Silva +52
The goal of this white paper is to provide a snapshot of the data availability and data needs primarily for the Ariel space mission, but also for related atmospheric studies of exo…
