The Science Potential of Characterizing Gas Giant Exoplanets with HWO
Beck Dacus, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Quinn Konopacky +19
With the ability to directly image Earth-like exoplanets and search their atmospheres for biosignatures, the upcoming Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will also collect high sign…
Impacts of Correlated Noise on Retrievals of Exo-Earth Atmospheres
Nicole Wolff, Bruce Macintosh, Tyler D. Robinson +6
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) aims to accomplish high-contrast imaging and spectroscopy of true Earth analogs for the first time. However, high-contrast spectroscopy with…
Discovery of an Exterior Third Planet Orbiting Pictoris
Aidan Gibbs, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Alexis Bidot +9
We report the discovery of Pictoris d ( Pic d), a third giant planet in the Pictoris system, which now becomes only the second directly imaged system with more than two…
Exomoons and Exorings with the Habitable Worlds Observatory II: Finding Endor with Lunar Eclipses
Mary Anne Limbach, Beck Dacus, Brooke Kotten +6
Giant planets in the habitable zone may host exomoons with conditions conducive to life. In this paper we describe a method by which the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) could de…
The Giant Accreting Protoplanet Survey (GAPlanetS): Optimization Techniques for Robust Detections of Protoplanets
Jéa I. Adams Redai, Katherine B. Follette, Jason Wang +11
High-contrast imaging has afforded astronomers the opportunity to study light directly emitted by adolescent (tens of Myr) and ``proto" (10Myr) planets still undergoing formatio…
The Giant Accreting Protoplanet Survey (GAPlanetS) -- Results from a Six Year Campaign to Image Accreting Protoplanets
Katherine B. Follette, Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males +20
Accreting protoplanets represent a window into planet formation processes. We report Hα differential imaging results from the deepest and most comprehensive accreting protoplanet s…
