VLTI/GRAVITY Observations of AF Lep b: Preference for Circular Orbits, Cloudy Atmospheres, and a Moderately Enhanced Metallicity
William O. Balmer, Kyle Franson, Antoine Chomez +26
Direct imaging observations are biased towards wide-separation, massive companions that have degenerate formation histories. Although the majority of exoplanets are expected to for…
The cool brown dwarf Gliese 229 B is a close binary
Jerry W. Xuan, A. Mérand, W. Thompson +76
Owing to their similarities with giant exoplanets, brown dwarf companions of stars provide insights into the fundamental processes of planet formation and evolution. From their orb…
A JWST MIRI MRS View of the Tel Debris Disk and its Brown Dwarf Companion
Yiwei Chai, Christine H. Chen, Kadin Worthen +12
We report JWST MIRI MRS observations of the Pictoris moving group member, Telescopii ( Tel) A and its brown dwarf binary companion, Tel B. Following PSF subtraction,…
JWST-TST High Contrast: Spectroscopic Characterization of the Benchmark Brown Dwarf HD 19467 B with the NIRSpec Integral Field Spectrograph
Kielan K. W. Hoch, Christopher A. Theissen, Travis S. Barman +14
We present the atmospheric characterization of the substellar companion HD 19467 B as part of the pioneering JWST GTO program to obtain moderate resolution spectra (R2,700, 3…
High contrast at short separation with VLTI/GRAVITY: Bringing Gaia companions to light
N. Pourré, T. O. Winterhalder, J. -B. Le Bouquin +173
Since 2019, GRAVITY has provided direct observations of giant planets and brown dwarfs at separations of down to 95 mas from the host star. Some of these observations have provided…
JWST/NIRCam 4-5 m Imaging of the Giant Planet AF Lep b
Kyle Franson, William O. Balmer, Brendan P. Bowler +23
With a dynamical mass of , the recently discovered giant planet AF Lep b is the lowest-mass imaged planet with a direct mass measurement. Its youth and spectra…
JWST-TST High Contrast: JWST/NIRCam observations of the young giant planet Pic b
Jens Kammerer, Kellen Lawson, Marshall D. Perrin +14
We present the first JWST/NIRCam observations of the directly-imaged gas giant exoplanet Pic b. Observations in six filters using NIRCam's round coronagraphic masks provide a h…
Four-of-a-kind? Comprehensive atmospheric characterisation of the HR 8799 planets with VLTI/GRAVITY
E. Nasedkin, P. Mollière, S. Lacour +95
With four companions at separations from 16 to 71 au, HR 8799 is a unique target for direct imaging, presenting an opportunity for the comparative study of exoplanets with a shared…
Combining Gaia and GRAVITY: Characterising five new Directly Detected Substellar Companions
T. O. Winterhalder, S. Lacour, A. Mérand +96
Precise mass constraints are vital for the characterisation of brown dwarfs and exoplanets. Here we present how the combination of data obtained by Gaia and GRAVITY can help enlarg…
A catalogue of dual-field interferometric binary calibrators
M. Nowak, S. Lacour, R. Abuter +97
Dual-field interferometric observations with VLTI/GRAVITY sometimes require the use of a "binary calibrator", a binary star whose individual components remain unresolved by the int…
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…
MIRI MRS Observations of Beta Pictoris I. The Inner Dust, the Planet, and the Gas
Kadin Worthen, Christine H. Chen, David R. Law +15
We present JWST MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrograph (MRS) observations of the Pictoris system. We detect an infrared excess from the central unresolved point source from 5 to 7…
