Exoplanet science is now in its full expansion, particularly after the CoRoT and Kepler space missions that led us to the discovery of thousands of extra-solar planets. The last decade has taught us that UV observations play a major role in advancing our understanding of planets and of their host stars, but the necessary UV observations can be carried out only by HST, and this is going to be the case for many years to come. It is therefore crucial to build a treasury data archive of UV exoplanet observations formed by a dozen "golden systems" for which observations will be available from the UV to the infrared. Only in this way we will be able to fully exploit JWST observations for exoplanet science, one of the key JWST science case.

The effects of stellar activity on optical high-resolution exoplanet transmission spectra
色球敏感的原子线显示不同的光谱在恒星活动区,斑点,和光球,提高的可能性,系外行星传输光谱被污染的恒星盘的各个部分之间的对比。为了探索这种效应,我们对G型和K型恒星进行了凌日模拟,其谱线分别为Ca II K 3933、Na I 5890、H I 6563(H $α$)和He I 10830。我们发现,强的光斑发射和大的覆盖率可以贡献一个不可忽略的量的透射光谱,特别是对于H $α$,钙II K,和钠I D,而斑点和细丝是相对不重要的。污染的量强烈地依赖于有源区的位置和本征发射强度。特别地,活动区域必须沿着运输弦集中,以便产生一致的运输中信号。例如,在活跃纬度的凌日过程中,Na I和H $α$的平均吸收特征可以分别达到$\approx 0.2\%$和$0.3\%$,其线发射强度与中等强度的太阳耀斑相似。像HD 189733这样经过活跃恒星的行星,其透射光谱很可能受到对比度效应的影响,尽管活动区几何形状和发射强度的严格限制使得一致的过境特征不太可能完全归因于对比度效应。He I 10830的影响并不强烈,吸收信号可能被恒星活动稀释,而不是增强。因此,He I 10830应该被认为是探测扩展大气层的优先目标,即使是在活跃恒星的情况下。
