摘要
詹姆斯·韦伯空间望远镜（JWST）通过以前所未有的细节揭示凌星系外行星的大气成分、结构和动力学，提供了变革我们对行星和生命起源理解的机会。然而，此类研究所需的高精度时间序列观测具有独特的技术挑战，并且其他设施的先前经验表明，在 JWST 投入运行时将存在陡峭的学习曲线。在本文中，我们描述了凌星系外行星社区早期释放科学（ERS）计划（这是最近批准的 JWST 在周期 1 早期观测的计划）的科学目标和详细计划。该项目的目标是加速获取和扩散使用 JWST 进行凌星系外行星观测的技术专长，同时提供一组引人注目的代表性数据集，以实现即时科学突破，所获数据无专属访问期。凌星系外行星社区 ERS 计划将运行所有四个 JWST 仪器的时间序列模式（这些模式已被确定为共识最高优先级），观测完整的凌星行星表征几何（凌星、掩食和相曲线），并以亮度跨度具有代表性范围的宿主恒星周围的行星为目标。该计划中的观测是通过包容且透明的过程定义的，有 JWST 仪器专家和国际凌星系外行星研究领军者的参与。社区对该项目的参与将以两阶段数据挑战为中心，最终在 JWST 任务周期 2 议程制定之前交付行星光谱、时间序列仪器性能报告和开源数据分析工具包。
