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…
Stellar Coronal Mass Ejections with HWO: A Science Case Concept
R. O. Parke Loyd, James Paul Mason, Ivey Davis +3
The primary mission of the Habitable World Observatory (HWO) will be to constrain the prevalence of life on Earth-like planets. These planets will be subject to impacts by energeti…
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…
Building SPARCS, an Ultraviolet Science CubeSat for Exoplanet Habitability Studies, Technology Advancements, and Mission Training
Evgenya L. Shkolnik, David R. Ardila, Logan Jensen +17
The Star-Planet Activity Research CubeSat (SPARCS) is a NASA-funded 6U-CubeSat mission designed to monitor ultraviolet (UV) radiation from low-mass stars. These stars' relatively h…
Detecting and characterising the magnetic field of exoplanets
A. Strugarek, S. V. Berdyugina, V. Bourrier +25
Magnetic fields play a crucial role in planetary evolution and habitability. While the intrinsic magnetic fields of solar system planets are relatively well understood, the magneti…
