The Goldilocks problem for detecting water in terrestrial planets: Constraining water abundances in the mid-IR with LIFE
Sarah Rugheimer, Eleonora Alei, Björn S. Konrad +7
We investigate how well the Large Interferometer for Exoplanets (LIFE) mission concept can detect habitable conditions on exoplanets through the presence of atmospheric water vapor…

Effect of UV Radiation on the Spectral Fingerprints of Earth-like Planets Orbiting M dwarfs
S. Rugheimer, L. Kaltenegger, A. Segura +2
We model the atmospheres and spectra of Earth-like planets orbiting the entire grid of M dwarfs for active and inactive stellar models with = 2300K to = 3800K a…

Water Planets in the Habitable Zone: Atmospheric Chemistry, Observable Features, and the case of Kepler-62e and -62f
L. Kaltenegger, D. Sasselov, S. Rugheimer
Planets composed of large quantities of water that reside in the habitable zone are expected to have distinct geophysics and geochemistry of their surfaces and atmospheres. We expl…
