Paths to Robust Exoplanet Science Yield Margin for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Christopher C. Stark, Bertrand Mennesson, Steve Bryson +11
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will seek to detect and characterize potentially Earth-like planets around other stars. To ensure that the mission achieves the Astro2020 Dec…
Visible extreme adaptive optics on extremely large telescopes: Towards detecting oxygen in Proxima Centauri b and analogs
J. Fowler, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Maaike A. M. van Kooten +38
Looking to the future of exo-Earth imaging from the ground, core technology developments are required in visible extreme adaptive optics (ExAO) to enable the observation of atmosph…
Chasing rainbows and ocean glints: Inner working angle constraints for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Sophia R. Vaughan, Timothy D. Gebhard, Kimberly Bott +41
NASA is engaged in planning for a Habitable Worlds Observatory (HabWorlds), a coronagraphic space mission to detect rocky planets in habitable zones and establish their habitabilit…
A review of simulation and performance modeling for the Roman coronagraph instrument
Ewan S. Douglas, Jaren N. Ashcraft, Ruslan Belikov +10
The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) will be capable of characterizing exoplanets in reflected light and will demonstrate space technologies essential…
Detecting Exoplanets Using Eclipsing Binaries as Natural Starshades
Stefano Bellotti, Ann Zabludoff, Ruslan Belikov +2
We investigate directly imaging exoplanets around eclipsing binaries, using the eclipse as a natural tool for dimming the binary and thus increasing the planet to star brightness c…
Sensitivity Analyses of Exoplanet Occurrence Rates from Kepler and Gaia
Megan Shabram, Natalie Batalha, Susan E. Thompson +11
We infer the number of planets-per-star as a function of orbital period and planet size using archival data products with updated stellar properties from the Data R…
