Transformational astrophysics and exoplanet science with Habitable Worlds Observatory's High Resolution Imager

Vincent Van Eylen, Richard Massey, Saeeda Awan +167

Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will be NASA's flagship space telescope of the 2040s, designed to search for life on other planets and to transform broad areas of astrophysics.…

A second planetesimal collision in the Fomalhaut system

Paul Kalas, Jason J. Wang, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +7

The nearby star Fomalhaut is orbited by a compact source, Fomalhaut b, which has previously been interpreted as either a dust-enshrouded exoplanet or a dust cloud generated by the…

Finding New Debris Discs at Sub-millimetre Wavelengths

Mark Booth, Patricia Luppe, Sebastian Marino +9

Debris discs reveal the architectures and dynamical histories of planetary systems. Sub-millimetre observations trace large dust grains within debris discs, revealing their bulk pr…

Theory of Exozodi Sources and Dust Evolution

Mark C. Wyatt, Tim D. Pearce, Nicole Pawellek +5

Exozodiacal dust disks (exozodis) are populations of warm (~300K) or hot (~1000K) dust, located in or interior to a star's habitable zone, detected around ~25% of main-sequence sta…

Worlds Next Door: A Candidate Giant Planet Imaged in the Habitable Zone of Cen A. I. Observations, Orbital and Physical Properties, and Exozodi Upper Limits

Charles Beichman, Aniket Sanghi, Dimitri Mawet +27

We report on coronagraphic observations of the nearest solar-type star, Cen A, using the MIRI instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope. With three epochs of observation (Au…

Worlds Next Door: A Candidate Giant Planet Imaged in the Habitable Zone of Cen A. II. Binary Star Modeling, Planet and Exozodi Search, and Sensitivity Analysis

Aniket Sanghi, Charles Beichman, Dimitri Mawet +14

JWST observed our closest solar twin, Cen A, with the MIRI coronagraph in F1550C (15.5 m) at three distinct epochs between August 2024 and April 2025. For the first time wit…

Exozodiacal dust as a limitation to exoplanet imaging and spectroscopy

Miles H. Currie, John Debes, Yasuhiro Hasegawa +7

In addition to planets and other small bodies, stellar systems will likely also host exozodiacal dust, or exozodi. This warm dust primarily resides in or near the habitable zone of…
