HIGHLIGHTS
18
Non-Inhabitable Small planets Key Questions How
do terrestrial planets form? What is the origin
of water on the Earth? What is the relationship
between small-body belts and terrestrial planet
formation? How common are big moons and
rings? What are the compositions of
extrasolar terrestrial planets? What is the
origin of terrestrial planet spins?
19
Tools The Rest of the Biomarkers! CO2, CH4,
Rayleigh scattering, photosynthetic pigments
(visible) CO2, CH4, N2O (IR), sulfur
compounds Silicate spectroscopy Find water
planets and dry planets. Extended Spectroscopic
Capabilities the bigger the range, the
better! Dynamics Measure eccentricity/inclinatio
n/semimajor axis distribution. Orbit
Determination Phase Curves Rings and
moons Polarimetry cloud compositions Correlate
planets and exozodiacal clouds.
20
Giant Planet Key Questions What creates the
range of metallicities in giant planets? Can
giant planets form by gas instability? How do
giant planets get their eccentricities? What is
the role of planet migration? What is the
relationship between giant planets and small
body belts? What is origin of giant planet
spins? Why is there a brown dwarf desert?

Tools Study RVSIM Exo-Jupiters Extended
Spectroscopic Capabilities the bigger the range,
the better! High Resolution Spectrograph Transit
Observations Follow Up Kepler Discoveries Test
mass vs luminosity relations and date systems
using SIM Masses
26
Planets around A stars, M stars, OB stars?
more statistics. How does the process of planet
formation change with stellar mass? White
Dwarfs Much less contrast needed in IR photon
noise limited--look in closer (1 AU) than JWST,
or more distant objects. Faster photometry---time
resolved? What is the future of the solar
system? Red Giants Is is stellar mass loss
sudden or adiabatic? Do planets create
asymmetries in PN?
27
Key YSO Questions Where does the gas go? Do
planets open gaps? What is disk temperature and
chemistry in the planet-forming region? Do
disks become self-shadowed? What forms
jets? Find and image new disks. Only 10-20 of
sources with IR excess and extended CO emission
show disks that HST could see in scattered
light. Study disks around brown dwarfs. ALMA
takes days to get to 100 zodis!
28
Study Disk Chemistry Many IR lines not
accessible to ALMA. Silicate emission feature 10
microns. H2 emission (IR) 17microns H2O CO
CO2 Map dissacociation regions and
photoionization regions that generate disk winds
that remove the disks. High-resolution IR
spectrograph wide-field imaging. OTHER
IDEAS Resolve closely separated PMS
binaries Astrometry of PMS binaries that are too
cool or embedded for SIM. IR TPF at 2
microns? Study colimation of jets--X winds? Or
disk winds? Very high resolution Optical.
29
Solar System Chemistry Comets and in
planetary atmospheres isotopic
abundances resolved high-res spectroscopy at
Kuiper Belt few x 100 km resolution at Kuiper
Belt Hi res IR spectrograph---compare to
SOFIA Optical spectroscopy, phase curves, and
transit curves of faint objects KBOs, Comet
Cores, NEOs. (few x better resolution than
ground-based) Resolve Binary KBOs Follow up
LSST and MACHO discoveries.
30
AGN Key Questions How do massive black holes
form and evolve? What is relationship between
galaxies and BHs? IR Mapping of dusty torii to
z7 detailed kinematics of torii
R2000 Optical morphology of quasar host
galaxies, z0.2-2 higher contrast and
resolutionthan JWST polarimetry of host galaxies
emission physics light echoes gives you distances
31
Cosmology Key questions 1) What is Dark
Matter? 2) What is Dark Energy? Cluster lensing
Distribution of dark matter Distances Cepheids
(to 3 times farther than HST) Surface brightness
fluctuations Measure H0 to 2 Measurement of
w (when combined with WMAP data) Optical Wide
Field of ViewAstrometry!

The most distant observed object is lensed
through Abell 2218. Objects at z 5.6 have been
found, corresponding to 13.4 billion light years
(4.1 Gpc)
