On the Impact of Correlated Noise and Spectral Resolution on the Retrieval Analysis of the Habitable World Observatory

Ji Wang, Philipp A. Huber, Sascha P. Quanz

Finding signs of life elsewhere in the universe is the holy grail of the field of exoplanets. Future space missions such as the Habitable World Observatory (HWO) are under developm…

A preliminary exploration of the effects of baseline length for the LIFE space mission

Jonah T. Hansen, Thomas Birbacher, Felix A. Dannert +7

By aiming to find and characterise dozens of habitable exoplanets through the technique of nulling interferometry, the LIFE space mission will produce transformational science. One…

Robust Data Interpretation for Perturbed Nulling Interferometers via Proper Handling of Correlated Errors

Philipp A. Huber, Felix A. Dannert, Romain Laugier +4

The detection and atmospheric characterization of potentially habitable, temperate terrestrial exoplanets using a space-based mid-infrared nulling interferometer is a major goal of…

Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE). XIV. Finding terrestrial protoplanets in the galactic neighborhood

Lorenzo Cesario, Tim Lichtenberg, Eleonora Alei +62

The increased brightness temperature of young rocky protoplanets during their magma ocean epoch makes them potentially amenable to atmospheric characterization to distances from th…
