JWST MIRI/MRS in-flight absolute flux calibration and tailored fringe correction for unresolved sources
D. Gasman, I. Argyriou, G. C. Sloan +18
The MRS is one of the four observing modes of JWST/MIRI. Using JWST in-flight data of unresolved (point) sources, we can derive the MRS absolute spectral response function (ASRF) s…
Active focal-plane coronagraphy with liquid-crystal spatial-light modulators: Broadband contrast performance in the visible
J. G. Kuhn, P. Patapis
The technological progress in spatial-light modulators (SLM) technology has made it possible to use those devices as programmable active focal-plane phase coronagraphic masks, open…
Nuclear high-ionisation outflow in the Compton-thick AGN NGC6552 as seen by the JWST mid-infrared instrument
J. Álvarez-Márquez, A. Labiano, P. Guillard +17
During the commissioning of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), the mid-infrared instrument (MIRI) observed NGC6552 with the MIRI Imager and the medium-resolution spectrograph (…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems II: A 1 to 20 Micron Spectrum of the Planetary-Mass Companion VHS 1256-1257 b
Brittany E. Miles, Beth A. Biller, Polychronis Patapis +101
We present the highest fidelity spectrum to date of a planetary-mass object. VHS 1256 b is a 20 M widely separated (8\arcsec, a = 150 au), young, planetary-…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems I: High Contrast Imaging of the Exoplanet HIP 65426 b from 2-16 m
Aarynn L. Carter, Sasha Hinkley, Jens Kammerer +108
We present JWST Early Release Science (ERS) coronagraphic observations of the super-Jupiter exoplanet, HIP 65426 b, with the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) from 2-5 m, and with t…
The Science Performance of JWST as Characterized in Commissioning
Jane Rigby, Marshall Perrin, Michael McElwain +623
This paper characterizes the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period. We summarize the performanc…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for the Direct Imaging & Spectroscopy of Exoplanetary Systems
Sasha Hinkley, Aarynn L. Carter, Shrishmoy Ray +83
The direct characterization of exoplanetary systems with high contrast imaging is among the highest priorities for the broader exoplanet community. As large space missions will be…
