The exozodi spectral effect: Residual habitable zone dust may bias exoEarth characterization

Miles H. Currie, Christopher C. Stark, Eleonora Alei +1

All exoplanetary systems are expected to host exozodiacal dust, or exozodi, originating from planetesimals. For many stars, exozodi will likely be the largest source of astrophysic…

Wavelength Requirements for Life Detection via Reflected Light Spectroscopy of Rocky Exoplanets

Joshua Krissansen-Totton, Anna Grace Ulses, Maxwell Frissell +21

Searching for signs of life is a primary goal of the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO). However, merely detecting oxygen, methane, or other widely discussed biosignatures is insuf…
