TOWARD THE MINIMUM INNER EDGE DISTANCE OF THE HABITABLE ZONE

TOWARD THE MINIMUM INNER EDGE DISTANCE OF THE HABITABLE ZONE

We explore the minimum distance from a host star where an exoplanet could potentially be habitable in order not to discard close-in rocky exoplanets for follow-up observations. We find that the inner edge of the Habitable Zone for hot desert worlds can be as close as 0.38 AU around a solar-like star...
