The Potential of Exozodiacal Disks Observations with the WFIRST Coronagraph Instrument
B. Mennesson, V. Bailey, J. Kasdin +60
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) will be the first high-performance stellar coronagraph using active wavefront control for deep starli…
Enabling the next generation of scientific discoveries by embracing photonic technologies
Nemanja Jovanovic, Charles Beichman, Cullen Blake +46
The fields of Astronomy and Astrophysics are technology limited, where the advent and application of new technologies to astronomy usher in a flood of discoveries altering our unde…
ESA Voyage 2050 White Paper: Detecting life outside our solar system with a large high-contrast-imaging mission
Ignas Snellen, Simon Albrecht, Guillem Anglada-Escude +64
In this white paper, we recommend the European Space Agency plays a proactive role in developing a global collaborative effort to construct a large high-contrast imaging space tele…
The ExoEarth Yield Landscape for Future Direct Imaging Space Telescopes
Christopher C. Stark, Rus Belikov, Matthew R. Bolcar +19
The expected yield of potentially Earth-like planets is a useful metric for designing future exoplanet-imaging missions. Recent yield studies of direct-imaging missions have focuse…
Constraining Stellar Photospheres as an Essential Step for Transmission Spectroscopy of Small Exoplanets
Benjamin V. Rackham, Arazi Pinhas, Dániel Apai +29
Transmission spectra probe the atmospheres of transiting exoplanets, but these observations are also subject to signals introduced by magnetic active regions on host stars. Here we…
The remote detectability of Earth's biosphere through time and the importance of UV capability for characterizing habitable exoplanets
Christopher T. Reinhard, Edward W. Schwieterman, Stephanie L. Olson +10
Thousands of planets beyond our solar system have been discovered to date, dozens of which are rocky in composition and are orbiting within the circumstellar habitable zone of thei…
