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…
ESCAPE: a small explorer mission to study the stellar drivers of exoplanet evolution
Allison Youngblood, Kevin France, Brian Fleming +37
The long-term stability of exoplanetary atmospheres depends critically on the extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) photon and high-energy particle fluxes from the host star, which are poorly…
Europa's Lyman- emissions from HST/STIS observations
L. Roth, K. D. Retherford, J. Saur +13
An image of Lyman- (Ly) emission from Europa obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (HST/STIS) has previously provided the first evid…
Laboratory Investigation of CO2-Driven Enhancement of Radiolytic H2O2 on Europa and Other Icy Moons
Bereket D. Mamo, Ujjwal Raut, Ben D. Teolis +5
Observations of Europa's leading hemisphere reveal elevated H2O2 in the warmer, low latitude chaos terrains compared to the colder, polar regions. This distribution disagrees with…
The Lyman alpha Sky as Observed by New Horizons
G. R. Gladstone, J. M. Shull, W. R. Pryor +22
During September 2023 the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft was used to map diffuse Lyman alpha (Lya) emission over most of the sky, at a range of…
Mass supply from Io to Jupiter's magnetosphere
L. Roth, A. Blöcker, K. de Kleer +24
Since the Voyager mission flybys in 1979, we have known the moon Io to be both volcanically active and the main source of plasma in the vast magnetosphere of Jupiter. Material lost…
