The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems VIII: patchy forsterite and enstatite clouds in the atmosphere of VHS 1256 b, retrieval lessons learned and outlook to the future
Niall Whiteford, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +123
JWST defines a new era for the data-driven approach of retrieval modelling, which has become a cornerstone tool for the statistical inference of exoplanetary and brown dwarf proper…
exoALMA XI: ALMA Observations and Hydrodynamic Models of LkCa 15: Implications for Planetary Mass Companions in the Dust Continuum Cavity
Charles H. Gardner, Andrea Isella, Hui Li +43
In the past decade, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has revealed a plethora of substructures in the disks surrounding young stars. These substructures have…
Doppler Shifted Transient Sodium Detection by KECK/HIRES
Athira Unni, Apurva V. Oza, H. Jens Hoeijmakers +12
We carried out the first high-resolution transit observations of the exoplanet WASP-49 Ab with Keck/HIRES. Upon custom wavelength calibration we achieve a Doppler RV precision of $…
Searching for Protoplanets around MWC 758 and MWC 480 in Br- using Kernel Phase and SCExAO/CHARIS
Alexander Chaushev, Steph Sallum, Julien Lozi +6
Discovering new actively-accreting protoplanets is crucial to answering open questions about planet formation. However, identifying such planets at orbital distances where they are…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems V: Do Self-Consistent Atmospheric Models Represent JWST Spectra? A Showcase With VHS 1256 b
Simon Petrus, Niall Whiteford, Polychronis Patapis +119
The unprecedented medium-resolution (R~1500-3500) near- and mid-infrared (1-18um) spectrum provided by JWST for the young (140+/-20Myr) low-mass (12-20MJup) L-T transition (L7) com…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems III: Aperture Masking Interferometric Observations of the star HIP 65426 at 3.8 um
Shrishmoy Ray, Steph Sallum, Sasha Hinkley +121
We present aperture masking interferometry (AMI) observations of the star HIP 65426 at as a part of the JWST Direct Imaging Early Release Science (ERS) program obtai…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems IV: NIRISS Aperture Masking Interferometry Performance and Lessons Learned
Steph Sallum, Shrishmoy Ray, Jens Kammerer +120
We present a performance analysis for the aperture masking interferometry (AMI) mode on board the James Webb Space Telescope Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (JWST/NI…
Systematic Multi-Epoch Monitoring of LkCa 15: Dynamic Dust Structures on Solar-System Scales
Steph Sallum, Josh Eisner, Andy Skemer +1
We present the highest angular resolution infrared monitoring of LkCa 15, a young solar analog hosting a transition disk. This system has been the subject of a number of direct ima…
A Large Double-ring Disk around the Taurus M Dwarf J04124068+2438157
Feng Long, Bin B. Ren, Nicole L. Wallack +23
Planet formation imprints signatures on the physical structures of disks. In this paper, we present high-resolution (50 mas, 8 au) Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Arra…
Detecting planetary mass companions near the water frost-line using JWST interferometry
Shrishmoy Ray, Sasha Hinkley, Steph Sallum +4
JWST promises to be the most versatile infrared observatory for the next two decades. The Near Infrared and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) instrument, when used in the Aperture Mas…
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

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…
On the diversity of asymmetries in gapped protoplanetary disks
Nienke van der Marel, Til Birnstiel, Antonio Garufi +7
Protoplanetary disks with large inner dust cavities are thought to host massive planetary or substellar companions. These disks show asymmetries and rings in the millimeter continu…
The Demographics and Atmospheres of Giant Planets with the ELTs
