Mapping Clouds and Terrain of Earth-like Planets from Photometric Variability: Demonstration with Planets in Face-on Orbits
Hajime Kawahara, Yuka Fujii
We develop an inversion technique of annual scattered light curves to sketch a two-dimensional albedo map of exoplanets in face-on orbits. As a test-bed for future observations of…

Colors of a Second Earth II: Effects of Clouds on Photometric Characterization of Earth-like Exoplanets
Yuka Fujii, Hajime Kawahara, Yasushi Suto +4
As a test-bed for future investigations of directly imaged terrestrial exoplanets, we present the recovery of the surface components of the Earth from multi-band diurnal light curv…
