Impact of Clouds and Hazes on the Simulated JWST Transmission Spectra of Habitable Zone Planets in the TRAPPIST-1 System
Thomas J. Fauchez, Martin Turbet, Geronimo L. Villanueva +9
The TRAPPIST-1 system, consisting of an ultra-cool host star having seven known Earth-size planets will be a prime target for atmospheric characterization with JWST. However, the d…
Constraining the magnitude of climate extremes from time-varying instellation on a circumbinary terrestrial planet
Jacob Haqq-Misra, Eric T. Wolf, William F. Welsh +3
Planets that revolve around a binary pair of stars are known as circumbinary planets. The orbital motion of the stars around their center of mass causes a periodic variation in the…
Habitable Zone Boundaries for Circumbinary Planets
Wolf Cukier, Ravi kumar Kopparapu, Stephen R. Kane +4
We use a one-dimensional (1-D) cloud-free climate model to estimate habitable zone (HZ) boundaries for terrestrial planets of masses 0.1 M and 5 M around circumbinary s…
The Mid-InfraRed Exo-planet CLimate Explorer MIRECLE: Exploring the Nearest M-Earths Through Ultra-Stable Mid-IR Transit and Phase-Curve Spectroscopy
Johannes Staguhn, Avi Mandell, Kevin Stevenson +11
This White Paper presents a mission concept called MIRECLE - the Mid-InfraRed Exoplanet CLimate Explorer. With a moderately sized aperture of 2 meters, broad wavelength coverage (4…
Simulated Phase-dependent Spectra of Terrestrial Aquaplanets in M Dwarf Systems
E. T. Wolf, R. K. Kopparapu, J. Haqq-Misra
Orbital phase-dependent variations in thermal emission and reflected stellar energy spectra can provide meaningful constraints on the climate states of terrestrial extrasolar plane…
Impacts of Quantum Chemistry Calculations on Exoplanetary Science, Planetary Astronomy, and Astrophysics
Der-you Kao, Marko Gacesa, Renata M. Wentzcovitch +26
Several of NASA missions (TESS, JWST, WFIRST, etc.) and mission concepts (LUVOIR, HabEx, and OST) emphasize the exploration and characterization of exoplanets, and the study of the…
