Sinking Silicates I: Characterizing the benchmark system containing the T0 brown dwarf CWISE J210640.16+250729.0 using JWST

Austin Rothermich, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +16

In this study, we present the full (97.3\% complete) 0.8--12.5 m spectral energy distribution (SED) of an L/T transition object, CWISE J210640.16+250729.0 (CW2106), using the Ja…

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…

The JWST weather report: Unravelling the atmospheric variability of isolated worlds using principal component analysis

Merle A. Schrader, Johanna M. Vos, Evert Nasedkin +17

Brown dwarf variability directly probes atmospheric dynamics beyond the Solar System, and recent JWST time-resolved spectroscopy has opened a new window into these processes. Princ…

Photometric Variability and Rotation of Beta Pictoris b from JWST NIRCam Coronagraphic Imaging

Yifan Zhou, Beth A. Biller, Aarynn L. Carter +28

We report the detection of photometric variability in the directly imaged super-Jupiter Pictoris b. Using JWST NIRCam dual-band coronagraphic imaging, we conducted a 16-hour co…

Native-resolution retrievals of VHS 1256-1257 b spanning the JWST/NIRSpec wavelength range: Chemical composition of a partially cloudy atmosphere

S. de Regt, N. Whiteford, B. E. Miles +3

The wide wavelength coverage and sensitivity offered by JWST enable detailed analyses of extrasolar atmospheres. At its highest resolution (R~2700), NIRSpec measures the absorption…

Oxygen and nitrogen isotopologues on cold COCONUTS-2b observed with MIRI/MRS

H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews, P. Mollière +12

Linking the composition of gas giant planets to their formation paths has long been a goal in exoplanet science. Especially, cold gas giants with temperatures below 500K have…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems. VII. Molecular Mapping Performance with JWST/MIRI MRS: VHS 1256 b as a case study

Mathilde Mâlin, Anthony Boccaletti, Benjamin Charnay +29

VHS 1256 b was the first planetary-mass companion to be observed with the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (JWST/MIRI) using the Medium-Resolution Spectrometer…

Information content of JWST transmission spectroscopy of the exoplanet HAT-P-12b from the optical to the mid-infrared

L. Heinke, M. Min, J. Bouwman +18

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) provides low- to medium-resolution spectra with unprecedented precision and broad near- to mid-infrared wavelength coverage, enabling detailed…
