Atmospheric characterization of cold exoplanets using a 1.5-m coronagraphic space telescope
(EDP Sciences S.A., 2012-05)High-contrast imaging is currently the only available technique for the study of the thermodynamical and compositional properties of exoplanets in long-period orbits, comparable to the range from Venus to Jupiter. The ... -
SPICES: spectro-polarimetric imaging and characterization of exoplanetary systems.
(Experimental Astronomy, 2012-10)SPICES (Spectro-Polarimetric Imaging and Characterization of Exoplanetary Systems) is a five-year M-class mission proposed to ESA Cosmic Vision. Its purpose is to image and characterize long-period extrasolar planets and ... -
Exoplanet Albedo Spectra and Colors as a Function of Planet Phase, Separation, and Metallicity
(The Astrophysical Journal, 2010-11-20)First generation space-based optical coronagraphic telescopes will obtain images of cool gas- and ice-giant exoplanets around nearby stars. Exoplanets lying at planet-star separations larger than about 1 AU—where an exoplanet ...
