Assessing the Impact of High-Resolution Imaging on Statistical Validation of TESS Planet Candidates
Michael Collier, Steven Giacalone, Brian Derfer +38
High-resolution imaging is widely used to constrain false-positive scenarios in exoplanet validation, but it is a finite follow-up resource that reaches only a subset of candidates…
Finding Habitable Exoplanets with Binary Relative Astrometry: Planet Detection and Characterization with the Microarcsecond Astrometric Retrieval Algorithm (MARA)
William Roberson, Eric L. Nielsen, Jessie L. Christiansen +8
Binary relative astrometry is a technique to search for rocky planets in the habitable zone of nearby binary stars using 1D relative astrometry at the microarcsecond level. This un…
The Roman Coronagraph Community Participation Program: pre-launch reference star list and impact of reference star properties on post-processing performance
Justin Hom, Schuyler G. Wolff, Jessica Gersh-Range +51
The upcoming Roman Coronagraph will be the first high-contrast instrument in space capable of high-order wavefront sensing and control technologies, a critical technology demonstra…
Emergent Symmetry-Protected Topological Phases via Polyakov Confinement in Quantum Spin Systems
Li-Wei He, Shun-Li Yu, Jian-Xin Li
A main theme in modern condensed matter physics is the emergence of fractionalized excitations and gauge structures from quantum spin systems. However, understanding how these exot…
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…
Searching for Habitable Exoplanets with Relative Astrometry (SHERA). I. The Case for Searching for Planets in Binary Star Systems
Jessie L. Christiansen, Eric E. Mamajek, Gautam Vasisht +14
Discovering Earth-like planets orbiting Sun-like stars was identified as a priority science goal of the Astronomy 2020 Decadal Survey. It is confounded by many factors, one of whic…
