The Polstar UV Spectropolarimetry Mission
Richard Ignace, Paul Scowen
The Polstar small explorer concept is for an ultraviolet (UV) spectropolarimetry space telescope mission with a focus on massive star astrophysics. The instrument waveband will be…
The Star-Planet Activity Research CubeSat (SPARCS): Determining Inputs to Planetary Habitability
David R. Ardila, Evgenya Shkolnik, Paul Scowen +19
Seventy-five billion low-mass stars in our galaxy host at least one small planet in their habitable zone (HZ). The stellar ultraviolet (UV) radiation received by the planets is str…
UV Spectropolarimetry with Polstar: Protoplanetary Disks
John P. Wisniewski, Andrei V. Berdyugin, Svetlana V. Berdyugina +13
Polstar is a proposed NASA MIDEX mission that would feature a high resolution UV spectropolarimeter capable of measure all four Stokes parameters onboard a 60cm telescope. The miss…
Ultraviolet Spectropolarimetry With Polstar: Hot Star Magnetospheres
M. E. Shultz, R. Casini, M. C. M. Cheung +17
Polstar is a proposed NASA MIDEX space telescope that will provide high-resolution, simultaneous full-Stokes spectropolarimetry in the far ultraviolet, together with low-resolution…
Onboard Dynamic Image Exposure Control for the Star-Planet Activity Research CubeSat (SPARCS)
Tahina Ramiaramanantsoa, Judd D. Bowman, Evgenya L. Shkolnik +19
The Star-Planet Activity Research CubeSat (SPARCS) is a 6U CubeSat under development to monitor the flaring and chromospheric activity of M dwarfs at near-ultraviolet (NUV) and far…
Time-Resolved Photometry of the High-Energy Radiation of M Dwarfs with the Star-Planet Activity Research CubeSat (SPARCS)
Tahina Ramiaramanantsoa, Judd D. Bowman, Evgenya L. Shkolnik +18
Know thy star, know thy planet,... especially in the ultraviolet (UV). Over the past decade, that motto has grown from mere wish to necessity in the M dwarf regime, given that the…
