The Ultraviolet Spectrograph on ESA's Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer Mission (JUICE-UVS)

Kurt D. Retherford, Philippa M. Molyneux, Thomas K. Greathouse +51

The Jupiter Icy Moons Explorer (JUICE) mission, led by ESA, has an Ultraviolet Spectrograph (JUICE-UVS) contributed by NASA and built at Southwest Research Institute. JUICE-UVS is…

ESCAPE: a small explorer mission to study the stellar drivers of exoplanet evolution

Allison Youngblood, Kevin France, Brian Fleming +37

The long-term stability of exoplanetary atmospheres depends critically on the extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) photon and high-energy particle fluxes from the host star, which are poorly…

The Lyman alpha Sky as Observed by New Horizons

G. R. Gladstone, J. M. Shull, W. R. Pryor +22

During September 2023 the Alice ultraviolet spectrograph on the New Horizons (NH) spacecraft was used to map diffuse Lyman alpha (Lya) emission over most of the sky, at a range of…

Estimate of water and hydroxyl abundance on asteroid (16) Psyche from JWST data

Stephanie G. Jarmak, Tracy M. Becker, Charles E. Woodward +10

Our understanding of Solar System evolution is closely tied to interpretations of asteroid composition, particularly the M-class asteroids. These asteroids were initially thought t…
