Tools
This page links to performance simulation and visualization tools for the LUVOIR mission, a future ultraviolet / optical / near-infrared observatory concept.
These widgets are experimental. If they are not working, email Jason Tumlinson (STScI). For the Planetary Spectrum Generator, email Geronimo Villanueva (GSFC).
HDI Photometric ETC
Basic exposure time calculator for optical photometry in multi-band images.
Coronagraphic Spectra of Exoplanets
Simulate optical/near-IR reflection spectra of various exoplanets with realistic noise.
LUMOS Spectroscopic ETC
Simple exposure time calculator for UV spectroscopy.
Multiplanet Yield Tool
Tool for visualizing yields of observed exoplanets (of various types) as function of basic mission parameters.
UV MOS Visualizer
See the impact of UV multi-object spectroscopy on the study of stellar clusters and their feedback.
Planetary Spectrum Generator
Advanced tool for simulating spectra of Solar System bodies (with LUVOIR and other telescopes).
High-Resolution Imaging
Examples of astronomical objects viewed with different sized telescopes.
