MICONIC: The spatial relationship between star formation and the AGN in Centaurus A revealed by JWST/MIRI
O. C. Jones, M. L. Jones, D. Dicken +21
Centaurus A (Cen A), the nearest active radio galaxy, hosts a warped dust disc formed in a gas-rich merger. We present JWST/MIRI imaging in three filters, F560W, F770W, and F1130W,…
JOYS: A JWST/MIRI survey of the evolution of H winds and jets from low-mass protostars
L. Francis, Å. Tychoniec, E. F. van Dishoeck +20
Protostellar outflows display wide-angle winds and collimated jets, the magnetocentrifugal launching of which enables accretion onto the protostar. The majority of the outflow mass…
JOYS: JWST MIRI/MRS spectra of the inner 500 au region of the L1527 IRS bipolar outflow
R. Devaraj, E. F. van Dishoeck, T. P. Ray +12
This study characterized the physical and kinematic properties within the innermost 500 au region of the L1527 bipolar outflow, a class 0/I low-mass protostar using JWST MIRI/MRS s…
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…
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 Observations of Young protoStars (JOYS): overview of program and early results
E. F. van Dishoeck, Å. Tychoniec, W. R. M. Rocha +34
The embedded phase is a crucial period in the development of a young star. Mid-IR observations, now possible with JWST with unprecedented sensitivity, spectral resolution and sharp…
