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…

JWST MIRI and NIRCam Unveil Previously Unseen Infrared Stellar Populations in NGC 6822

Conor Nally, Olivia C. Jones, Laura Lenkić +9

NGC 6822 is a nearby (~490 kpc) non-interacting low-metallicity (0.2 Zsolar) dwarf galaxy which hosts several prominent H ii regions, including sites of highly embedded active star…

A JWST/MIRI and NIRCam Analysis of the Young Stellar Object Population in the Spitzer I region of NGC 6822

Laura Lenkić, Conor Nally, Olivia C. Jones +8

We present an imaging survey of the Spitzer I star-forming region in NGC 6822 conducted with the NIRCam and MIRI instruments onboard JWST. Located at a distance of 490 kpc, NGC 682…

Ejecta, Rings, and Dust in SN 1987A with JWST MIRI/MRS

O. C. Jones, P. J. Kavanagh, M. J. Barlow +31

Supernova (SN) 1987A is the nearest supernova in 400 years. Using the {\em JWST} MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrograph, we spatially resolved the ejecta, equatorial ring (ER) a…

The first JWST spectrum of a GRB afterglow: No bright supernova in observations of the brightest GRB of all time, GRB 221009A

A. J. Levan, G. P. Lamb, B. Schneider +57

We present JWST and Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the afterglow of GRB 221009A, the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever observed. This includes the first mid-IR spe…

JWST NIRSpec observations of Supernova 1987A -- from the inner ejecta to the reverse shock

J. Larsson, C. Fransson, B. Sargent +23

We present initial results from JWST NIRSpec integral field unit observations of the nearby Supernova (SN) 1987A. The observations provide the first spatially-resolved spectroscopy…
