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…
Hints of enhanced magnetic activity after the intermediate rotation period gap as traced by the chromospheric Ca ii infrared triplet
Diego Godoy-Rivera, Savita Mathur, Tyler Richey-Yowell +5
For low-mass stars (M < 1.4 Msun), the connection between stellar rotation and magnetic activity governs stellar spin-down, shapes the environments of their exoplanets, and provide…
A Critical UV Legacy: A Hubble Roadmap for HWO Science Readiness
Sarah Peacock, Aiden S. Zelakewicz, Lisa Kaltenegger +14
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will provide the first opportunity to directly image and spectrally characterize terrestrial exoplanets in the habitable zones of nearby star…
Mining the Kepler Field: Atmospheric Parameters, Bolometric Corrections, and Luminosities
Diego Godoy-Rivera, Desmond H. Grossmann, Tyler Richey-Yowell +3
The ~ 200,000 stars observed by the Kepler mission have provided unprecedented constraints across astrophysics. With the advent of modern spectroscopic and photometric surveys, new…
HWO Target Stars and Systems: A Survey of Archival UV and X-ray Data
Sarah Peacock, David J. Wilson, Tyler Richey-Yowell +14
We assess archival high-energy data for key stars on the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) Target Stars and Systems 2025 list, as stellar radiation is critical to shaping and inte…
