Journal ArticleDOI

Potential biosignatures in super-Earth atmospheres I. Spectral appearance of super-Earths around M dwarfs

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral appearance of molecular absorption bands, which are relevant as indicators for potential planetary habitability during primary and secondary eclipse for transiting terrestrial planets with Earth-like biomass emissi ons, was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

EChO - Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory

Giovanna Tinetti, +134 more
TL;DR: The Exoplanet Characterisation Observatory (EChO) as mentioned in this paper is a mission concept specifically geared for this purpose, providing simultaneous, multi-wavelength spectroscopic observations on a stable platform that will allow very long exposures.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clouds in the atmospheres of extrasolar planets - I. Climatic effects of multi-layered clouds for Earth-like planets and implications for habitable zones

TL;DR: In this paper, a parametric cloud model has been developed based on observations in the Earth's atmosphere to study the effect of clouds on the surface temperature and the Bond albedo of Earth-like planets orbiting different types of main sequence dwarf stars.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectral features of Earth-like planets and their detectability at different orbital distances around F, G, and K-type stars

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral appearance of Earth-like exoplanets in the habitable zone (HZ) of different main sequence (F, G, and K-type) stars at different orbital distances was investigated.
