Biosignatures of the Earth I. Airborne spectropolarimetric detection of photosynthetic life
C. H. Lucas Patty, Jonas G. Kühn, Petar H. Lambrev +10
Context. Homochirality is a generic and unique property of life on Earth and is considered a universal and agnostic biosignature. Homochirality induces fractional circular polariza…
Design of the Life Signature Detection Polarimeter LSDpol
Christoph U. Keller, Frans Snik, C. H. Lucas Patty +11
Many biologically produced chiral molecules such as amino acids and sugars show a preference for left or right handedness (homochirality). Light reflected by biological materials s…
LOUPE: Observing Earth from the Moon to prepare for detecting life on Earth-like exoplanets
Dora Klindžić, Daphne M. Stam, Frans Snik +6
LOUPE, the Lunar Observatory for Unresolved Polarimetry of the Earth, is a small, robust spectro-polarimeter with a mission to observe the Earth as an exoplanet. Detecting Earth-li…
A snapshot full-Stokes spectropolarimeter for detecting life on Earth
Frans Snik, Christoph U. Keller, David S. Doelman +8
We present the design of a point-and-shoot non-imaging full-Stokes spectropolarimeter dedicated to detecting life on Earth from an orbiting platform like the ISS. We specifically a…
