Enhancing the performance and capabilities of the MIRI instrument on JWST

S. Kendrew, M. Engesser, K. Rowlands +23

MIRI, the Mid-Infrared Instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope, is the only instrument sensitive to wavelengths longward of 5 um on the observatory. In this regime, MIRI bring…

Sequencing Silicates in the IRS Debris Disk Catalog I: Methodology for Unsupervised Clustering

Cicero X. Lu, Tushar Mittal, Christine H. Chen +10

Debris disks, which consist of dust, planetesimals, planets, and gas, offer a unique window into the mineralogical composition of their parent bodies, especially during the critica…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems V: Do Self-Consistent Atmospheric Models Represent JWST Spectra? A Showcase With VHS 1256 b

Simon Petrus, Niall Whiteford, Polychronis Patapis +119

The unprecedented medium-resolution (R~1500-3500) near- and mid-infrared (1-18um) spectrum provided by JWST for the young (140+/-20Myr) low-mass (12-20MJup) L-T transition (L7) com…
