HWO Yield Sensitivities in the NIR and NUV
Rhonda Morgan, Dmitry Savransky, Michael Turmon +6
Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will search for biosignatures from Earth-size exoplanets in the habitable zones of nearby stars. The wavelength range for biosignatures used by t…
Paths to Robust Exoplanet Science Yield Margin for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Christopher C. Stark, Bertrand Mennesson, Steve Bryson +11
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will seek to detect and characterize potentially Earth-like planets around other stars. To ensure that the mission achieves the Astro2020 Dec…
Current laboratory performance of starlight suppression systems, and potential pathways to desired Habitable Worlds Observatory exoplanet science capabilities
Bertrand Mennesson, Ruslan Belikov, Emiel Por +34
We summarize the current best polychromatic (10 to 20 % bandwidth) contrast performance demonstrated in the laboratory by different starlight suppression approaches and systems des…
Vortex Fiber Nulling for Exoplanet Observations: First Direct Detection of M Dwarf Companions around HIP 21543, HIP 94666, and HIP 50319
Daniel Echeverri, Jerry W. Xuan, John D. Monnier +35
Vortex fiber nulling (VFN) is a technique for detecting and characterizing faint companions at small separations from their host star. A near-infrared (m) VFN demonstrat…
