Impact of Clouds and Hazes on the Simulated JWST Transmission Spectra of Habitable Zone Planets in the TRAPPIST-1 System
Thomas J. Fauchez, Martin Turbet, Geronimo L. Villanueva +9
The TRAPPIST-1 system, consisting of an ultra-cool host star having seven known Earth-size planets will be a prime target for atmospheric characterization with JWST. However, the d…
Venus as a Laboratory for Exoplanetary Science
Stephen R. Kane, Giada Arney, David Crisp +9
The current goals of the astrobiology community are focused on developing a framework for the detection of biosignatures, or evidence thereof, on objects inside and outside of our…
Absolute Prioritization of Planetary Protection, Safety, and Avoiding Imperialism in All Future Science Missions: A Policy Perspective
Monica Vidaurri, Alia Wofford, Jonathan Brande +3
The prioritization and improvement of ethics, planetary protection, and safety standards in the astro-sciences is the most critical priority as our scientific and exploratory capab…
An Ensemble of Bayesian Neural Networks for Exoplanetary Atmospheric Retrieval
Adam D. Cobb, Michael D. Himes, Frank Soboczenski +7
Machine learning is now used in many areas of astrophysics, from detecting exoplanets in Kepler transit signals to removing telescope systematics. Recent work demonstrated the pote…
The Need for Laboratory Measurements and Ab Initio Studies to Aid Understanding of Exoplanetary Atmospheres
Jonathan J. Fortney, Tyler D. Robinson, Shawn Domagal-Goldman +85
We are now on a clear trajectory for improvements in exoplanet observations that will revolutionize our ability to characterize their atmospheric structure, composition, and circul…
VPLanet: The Virtual Planet Simulator
Rory Barnes, Rodrigo Luger, Russell Deitrick +14
We describe a software package called VPLanet that simulates fundamental aspects of planetary system evolution over Gyr timescales, with a focus on investigating habitable worlds.…
