Spectroscopic confirmation of four metal-poor galaxies at z=10.3-13.2
Emma Curtis-Lake, Stefano Carniani, Alex Cameron +56
Finding and characterising the first galaxies that illuminated the early Universe at cosmic dawn is pivotal to understand the physical conditions and the processes that led to the…
Spectroscopic Time-series Performance of JWST/NIRSpec from Commissioning Observations
Néstor Espinoza, Leonardo Úbeda, Stephan M. Birkmann +22
We report on JWST commissioning observations of the transiting exoplanet HAT-P-14 b, obtained using the Bright Object Time Series (BOTS) mode of the NIRSpec instrument with the G39…
The In-Flight Noise Performance of the JWST/NIRSpec Detector System
Stephan M. Birkmann, Giovanna Giardino, Marco Sirianni +11
The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) is one the four focal plane instruments on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) which was launched on December 25, 2021. We present the in…
Astrometric and Wavelength Calibration of the NIRSpec Instrument during Commissioning using a model-based approach
Nora Lützgendorf, Giovanna Giardino, Catarina Alves de Oliveira +11
The NIRSpec instrument for the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a highly versatile near-infrared spectrograph that can be operated in various observing modes, slit apertures, a…
In-flight performance and calibration of the Grating Wheel Assembly sensors (NIRSpec/JWST)
Catarina Alves de Oliveira, Nora Luetzgendorf, Peter Zeidler +9
The Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec) on board of the James Webb Space Telescope will be the first multi-object spectrograph in space offering ~250,000 configurable micro-shutte…
Optical throughput and sensitivity of JWST NIRSpec
G. Giardino, R. Bhatawdekar, S. M. Birkmann +13
To achieve its ambitious scientific goals, the Near-Infrared Spectrograph, NIRSpec, on board the Webb Space Telescope, needs to meet very demanding throughput requirements, here qu…
