Large-amplitude Variability Driven by Giant Dust Storms on a Planetary-mass Companion
Xianyu Tan, Xi Zhang, Mark S. Marley +17
Large-amplitude variations are commonly observed in the atmospheres of directly imaged exoplanets and brown dwarfs. VHS 1256B, the most variable known planet-mass object, exhibits…
The Diversity of Cold Worlds: Age and Characterization of the Exoplanet COCONUTS-2b
Rocio Kiman, Charles A. Beichman, Azul Ruiz Diaz +19
Studying cold brown dwarfs is key to understanding the diverse characteristics of cold giant exoplanets atmospheres. COCONUTS-2, is a wide binary system composed of a T9 brown dwar…
Diversity of Cold Worlds: Predicted Near- to Mid-infrared Spectral Signatures of a Cold Brown Dwarf with Potential Auroral Heating
Genaro Suárez, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +12
Recent JWST/NIRSpec observations have revealed strong methane emission at 3.326 microns in the 482 K brown dwarf CWISEP J193518.59154620.3 (W1935). Atmospheric modeling…
Characterizing the Time Variability of 2M1207 A+b with JWST NIRSpec/PRISM
Arthur D. Adams, Yifan Zhou, Gabriel Dominique-Marleau +13
We present JWST NIRSpec/PRISM IFU time-resolved observations of 2M1207 A and b (TWA 27), a Myr binary system consisting of a K sub-stellar primary hosting a $…
Evidence for SiO cloud nucleation in the rogue planet PSO J318
P. Mollière, H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews +25
Silicate clouds are known to significantly impact the spectra of late L-type brown dwarfs, with observable absorption features at ~ 10 micron. JWST has reopened our window to the m…
JWST/MIRI observations of the young TWA 27 system: hydrocarbon disk chemistry, silicate clouds, evidence for a CPD
P. Patapis, M. Morales-Calderón, A. M. Arabhavi +39
The Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) enables the characterisation of young self-luminous gas giants at previously inaccessible wavelengths, r…
Detection of CO, CO, and HO in the atmosphere of the warm sub-Saturn HAT-P-12b
N. Crouzet, B. Edwards, T. Konings +29
The chemical composition of warm gas giant exoplanet atmospheres (with Teq < 1000 K) is not well known due to the lack of observational constraints. HAT-P-12 b is a warm, sub-Satur…
The JWST Weather Report: retrieving temperature variations, auroral heating, and static cloud coverage on SIMP-0136
Evert Nasedkin, Merle Schrader, Johanna M. Vos +15
SIMP-0136 is a T2.5 brown dwarf whose young age (~Myr) and low mass (~M) make it an ideal analogue for the directly imaged exoplanet population. With…
On Linking Planet Formation Models, Protoplanetary Disk Properties, and Mature Gas Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres
Adina D. Feinstein, Richard A. Booth, Jennifer B. Bergner +34
Measuring a single elemental ratio (e.g., carbon-to-oxygen) provides insufficient information for understanding the formation mechanisms and evolution that affect our observations…
Diversity of Cold Worlds: A Near Complete Spectral Energy Distribution for 2MASS J04151954-0935066 using JWST
Sherelyn Alejandro Merchan, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Genaro Suárez +25
We present the a near complete spectral energy distribution (SED) for an extrasolar world: the T8 brown dwarf 2MASS~J041519540935066. Spanning from optical to mid-infrared (0.7-…
The JWST weather report from the nearest brown dwarfs II: Consistent variability mechanisms over 7 months revealed by 1-14 m NIRSpec + MIRI monitoring of WISE 1049AB
Xueqing Chen, Beth A. Biller, Xianyu Tan +22
We present a new epoch of JWST spectroscopic variability monitoring of the benchmark binary brown dwarf WISE 1049AB, the closest, brightest brown dwarfs known. Our 8-hour MIRI low…
MIRI-JWST mid-infrared direct imaging of the debris disk of HD106906
Daniel Rouan, Anthony Boccaletti, Clément Perrot +20
We report MIRI-JWST coronagraphic observations at 11.3 and 15.5 mic of the debris disk around the young star HD 106906. The observations were made to characterize the structure, te…
The Diversity of Cold Worlds: a blended-light binary straddling the T/Y transition in brown dwarfs
