Solar wind interaction with comet 67P: impacts of corotating interaction regions
Niklas J. T. Edberg, A. I. Eriksson, E. Odelstad +18
We present observations from the Rosetta Plasma Consortium of the effects of stormy solar wind on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. Four corotating interaction regions (CIRs), where…
CME impact on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko
Niklas J. T. Edberg, M. Alho, M. André +22
We present Rosetta observations from comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko during the impact of a coronal mass ejection (CME). The CME impacted on 5-6 Oct 2015, when Rosetta was about 80…
Solar System Ice Giants: Exoplanets in our Backyard
Abigail Rymer, Kathleen Mandt, Dana Hurley +110
Future remote sensing of exoplanets will be enhanced by a thorough investigation of our solar system Ice Giants (Neptune-size planets). What can the configuration of the magnetic f…
The Origins Space Telescope: Towards An Understanding of Temperate Planetary Atmospheres
Jonathan Fortney, Tiffany Kataria, Kevin Stevenson +46
The Origins Space Telescope (OST) is one of four mission concepts currently being studied by NASA in preparation for the Astrophysics 2020 Decadal Survey. With active cooling (~4 K…
Exoplanet Diversity in the Era of Space-based Direct Imaging Missions
Ravi Kopparapu, Eric Hebrard, Rus Belikov +55
This whitepaper discusses the diversity of exoplanets that could be detected by future observations, so that comparative exoplanetology can be performed in the upcoming era of larg…
Exploring Extreme Space Weather Factors of Exoplanetary Habitability
V. S. Airapetian, V. Adibekyan, M. Ansdell +46
It is currently unknown how common life is on exoplanets, or how long planets can remain viable for life. To date, we have a superficial notion of habitability, a necessary first s…
Life Beyond the Solar System: Remotely Detectable Biosignatures
Shawn Domagal-Goldman, Nancy Y. Kiang, Niki Parenteau +38
For the first time in human history, we will soon be able to apply the scientific method to the question "Are We Alone?" The rapid advance of exoplanet discovery, planetary systems…
