Searching for Planets Orbiting Fomalhaut with JWST/NIRCam
Marie Ygouf, Charles Beichman, Jorge Llop-Sayson +20
We report observations with the JWST/NIRCam coronagraph of the Fomalhaut system. This nearby A star hosts a complex debris disk system discovered by the IRAS satellite. Observation…
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…
JWST-TST High Contrast: Achieving direct spectroscopy of faint substellar companions next to bright stars with the NIRSpec IFU
Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Marshall D. Perrin, Kielan K. W. Hoch +33
The JWST NIRSpec integral field unit (IFU) presents a unique opportunity to observe directly imaged exoplanets from 3-5 um at moderate spectral resolution (R~2,700) and thereby bet…
Benefits of adding radial phase dimples on scalar coronagraph phase masks
Niyati Desai, Dimitri Mawet, Eugene Serabyn +4
Current scalar coronagraph focal plane mask designs are performance-limited by chromaticity. We investigate the effects of adding central Roddier and dual zone phase dimples to sca…
Spatially resolved imaging of the inner Fomalhaut disk using JWST/MIRI
Andras Gaspar, Schuyler Grace Wolff, George H. Rieke +9
Planetary debris disks around other stars are analogous to the Asteroid and Kuiper belts in the Solar System. Their structure reveals the configuration of small bodies and provides…
Laboratory demonstration of the wrapped staircase scalar vortex coronagraph
Niyati Desai, Garreth J. Ruane, Jorge D. Llop-Sayson +5
Of the over 5000 exoplanets that have been detected, only about a dozen have ever been directly imaged. Earth-like exoplanets are on the order of 10 billion times fainter than thei…
JWST Observations of the Enigmatic Y Dwarf WISE 1828+2650: I. Limits to a Binary Companion
Matthew De Furio, Ben W. Lew, Charles A. Beichman +20
The Y-dwarf WISE 1828+2650 is one of the coldest known Brown Dwarfs with an effective temperature of 300 K. Located at a distance of just 10 pc, previous model-based estimate…
First Observations of the Brown Dwarf HD 19467 B with JWST
Alexandra Z. Greenbaum, Jorge Llop-Sayson, Ben Lew +21
We observed HD 19467 B with JWST's NIRCam in six filters spanning 2.5-4.6 with the Long Wavelength Bar coronagraph. The brown dwarf HD 19467 B was initially identified through…
Planet Search with the Keck/NIRC2 Vortex Coronagraph in Ms-band for Vega
Bin B. Ren, Nicole L. Wallack, Spencer A. Hurt +12
Gaps in circumstellar disks can signal the existence of planetary perturbers, making such systems preferred targets for direct imaging observations of exoplanets. Being one of the…
