EK Cha b: multi-tracer detection of a protoplanet candidate in a gas-rich environment

Felipe Alarcón, C. Swastik, Stefano Facchini +2

Despite sustained community efforts and advances in instrumentation and high-contrast imaging, the search for protoplanets remains difficult, with only two widely accepted systems…

JWST/MIRI Spectroscopy of the Quiescent Black Hole X-ray Binary XTE J1118+480: Constraints on Jet and Circumbinary Dust Contributions to the Mid-infrared Emission

Zihao Zuo, Elena Gallo, Nuria Calvet +9

We report on JWST/MIRI low-resolution spectroscopy (-m) and imaging (-m) of the black hole X-ray binary XTE~J1118+480 in quiescence, at an X-ray luminosity nine…

JWST/MIRI Imaging Search for Kinematically Detected Protoplanetary Candidates

G. Cugno, M. Benisty, R. Teague +32

Kinematic perturbations observed with ALMA in CO line emission provide evidence for a population of embedded giant protoplanets shaping the structure of protoplanetary disks. We pr…

Mapping the WISPIT2 Planet-Hosting Cavity at Sub-Hill-Radius scales

Myriam Benisty, Stefano Facchini, Richard Teague +6

We present new deep, very high angular resolution observations of the sub-mm continuum (19x13 mas) and 12CO (67x52 mas) emission from the disk surrounding the planet host WISPIT2.…

JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects. IV. Detailed Imaging of the Protoplanetary Disk around TW Hya

Yu-Chia Lin, Jarron Leisenring, Schuyler G. Wolff +14

As the nearest protoplanetary disk to Earth ( pc), TW Hya is one of the most studied protoplanetary disks and a critical benchmark for testing planet formation theories.…

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…
