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…
Gas-depleted planet formation occurred in the four-planet system around the red dwarf LHS 1903
Thomas G. Wilson, Anna M. Simpson, Andrew Collier Cameron +173
Small exoplanet radii show two populations, referred to as super-Earths and sub-Neptunes, separated by a gap known as the radius valley. This may be produced by the removal of atmo…
HST-COS Transit Spectroscopy of KELT-20b: First Detection of Excess Far-ultraviolet Absorption From an Ultra-hot Jupiter
Patrick R. Behr, Kevin France, Luca Fossati +4
KELT-20 b is an ultra-hot Jupiter with an equilibrium temperature of K orbiting a bright (V =7.6), fast-rotating (=117 km s) A2 V star. The atmosphere of KE…
An Ultra-Short Period Super-Earth and Sub-Neptune Spanning the Radius Valley Orbiting the Kinematic Thick Disk Star TOI-2345
Yoshi Nike Emilia Eschen, Thomas G. Wilson, Andrea Bonfanti +94
A crucial chemical link between stars and their orbiting exoplanets is thought to exist. If universal, this connection could affect the formation and evolution of all planets. Ther…
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…
High-resolution Ultraviolet-to-nearinfrared Characterization of Exoplanet Atmospheres
Patricio E. Cubillos, Matteo Brogi, Antonio GarcÃa Muñoz +19
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) offers a unique opportunity to revolutionize our understanding of planetary formation and evolution. The goal of this Science Case Developmen…
