Planetary systems with HZ planets detectable with LIFE’s reference configuration. Planets detectable with LIFE are shown by green circles and those which are not, by black circles. Inscribed white-star markers indicate planets that are accessible with HWO in reflected starlight (P_access > 25%). Blue-shaded regions show the conservative HZ of each star, with lighter-blue regions being the optimistic HZ zone (Kopparapu et al. 2014). The sizes of the markers both for stars and planets are proportional to their masses. Stars are color-coded depending on their spectral type (red, orange, yellow, blue-grey and light blue for M, K, G, F and A stars resp.). The Solar System is depicted in the first subplot for reference.
