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…
Magnetic activity in cool stars: manifestations and relevance to exoplanets
E. Işık, A. Valio, A. Strugarek +10
Understanding stellar magnetic activity is central to exoplanet science in two ways: it sets the dynamic astrospheric boundary condition governing planetary space environments, and…
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…
The Exospace Weather Frontier
R. O. Parke Loyd, Evgenya L. Shkolnik, Joseph Lazio +26
Space weather is among the most powerful and least understood forces shaping planetary atmospheres. In our Solar System, we observe its effects directly: atmospheric escape, chemic…
