Panchromatic Spectra of Nearby Low-mass and Sun-like Stars with Directly Imageable Habitable Zones
Sarah Peacock, Breanna A. Binder, Edward W. Schwieterman +4
Characterizing the high-energy radiation environments of stars plays a critical role in determining which systems' planets are capable of retaining atmospheres and sustaining habit…
X-ray Emission and Stellar Ages of Sun-Like Stars
Breanna A. Binder, Edward W. Schwieterman, Alison Farrish +4
We present an analysis of XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of 85 nearby main-sequence FGK stars with age estimates ranging from 0.2-12 Gyr. We measure quiescent 0.3-10 keV lumin…
Habitability in 4-D: Predicting the Climates of Earth Analogs across Rotation and Orbital Configurations
Arthur D. Adams, Christopher Colose, Aronne Merrelli +2
Earth-like planets in the circumstellar habitable zone (HZ) may have dramatically different climate outcomes depending on their spin-orbit parameters, altering their habitability f…
Dynamical Viability Assessment for Habitable Worlds Observatory Targets
Stephen R. Kane, Zhexing Li, Margaret C. Turnbull +2
Exoplanetary science is increasingly prioritizing efforts toward direct imaging of planetary systems, with emphasis on those that may enable the detection and characterization of p…
X-ray Emission of Nearby Low-mass and Sun-like Stars with Directly Imageable Habitable Zones
Breanna A. Binder, Sarah Peacock, Edward W. Schwieterman +5
Stellar X-ray and UV radiation can significantly affect the survival, composition, and long-term evolution of the atmospheres of planets in or near their host star's habitable zone…
