JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects. IV. Detailed Imaging of the Protoplanetary Disk around TW Hya

Yu-Chia Lin, Jarron Leisenring, Schuyler G. Wolff +14

As the nearest protoplanetary disk to Earth ( pc), TW Hya is one of the most studied protoplanetary disks and a critical benchmark for testing planet formation theories.…

The compositions of the HR 8799 planets reflect accretion of both solids and metal-enriched gas

Jerry W. Xuan, Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Yayaati Chachan +24

With four giant planets (, $T_\rm{eff}\sim900-1200$ K) orbiting between 15-70 au, HR 8799 provides an unparalleled testbed for studying giant planet formatio…

JWST spectral retrieval of cold directly imaged planet WD0806 b and the first measurement of altitude-dependent K in exoplanet atmospheres

Ben W. P. Lew, Thomas Roellig, Natasha E. Batalha +10

WD0806 b is a rare exoplanet companion orbiting a white dwarf, currently with a projected orbital distance of 2500 au. The Spitzer mid-IR photometry suggests that the temperature i…

The Outflow of the B335 Protostar II: After the Outburst

Klaus W. Hodapp, Adwin Boogert, Doug Johnstone +6

The B335 protostar has recently undergone a major, still ongoing, outburst detected in scattered light from its outflow cavity, offering a rare opportunity to study its impact on a…

Jupiter-like uniform metal enrichment in a system of multiple giant exoplanets

Jean-Baptiste Ruffio, Jerry W. Xuan, Yayaati Chachan +15

The accretion of icy and rocky solids during the formation of a gas giant planet is poorly constrained and challenging to model. Refractory species, like sulfur, are only present i…

Searching for Planets Orbiting Vega with the James Webb Space Telescope

Charles Beichman, Geoffrey Bryden, Jorge Llop-Sayson +15

The most prominent of the IRAS debris disk systems, Lyrae (Vega), at a distance of 7.7 pc, has been observed by both the NIRCam and MIRI instruments on the James Webb Space Tel…

Unveiling two deeply embedded young protostars in the S68N Class 0 protostellar core with JWST/NIRSpec

Valentin J. M. Le Gouellec, Ben W. P. Lew, Thomas P. Greene +11

The near-infrared (NIR) emission of the youngest protostars still needs to be characterized to better understand the evolution of their accretion and ejection activity. We analyze…

The JWST/NIRISS Deep Spectroscopic Survey for Young Brown Dwarfs and Free-Floating Planets

Adam B. Langeveld, Aleks Scholz, Koraljka Mužić +9

The discovery and characterization of free-floating planetary-mass objects (FFPMOs) is fundamental to our understanding of star and planet formation. Here we report results from an…

Identification of a turnover in the initial mass function of a young stellar cluster down to 0.5 M

Matthew De Furio, Michael R. Meyer, Thomas Greene +11

A successful theory of star formation should predict the number of objects as a function of their mass produced through star-forming events. Previous studies in star-forming region…

JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects III: Detailed Imaging of the Nebular Environment Around the HL Tau Disk

Camryn Mullin, Ruobing Dong, Jarron Leisenring +13

As part of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) Guaranteed Time Observation (GTO) program "Direct Imaging of YSOs" (program ID 1179), we use JWST NIRCam's direct imaging mode in F…

High-precision atmospheric characterization of a Y dwarf with JWST NIRSpec G395H spectroscopy: isotopologue, C/O ratio, metallicity, and the abundances of six molecular species

Ben W. P. Lew, Thomas Roellig, Natasha E. Batalha +19

The launch of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) marks a pivotal moment for precise atmospheric characterization of Y dwarfs, the coldest brown dwarf spectral type. In this stud…

The outflow of the protostar in B335: I

Klaus W. Hodapp, Laurie L. Chu, Thomas Greene +10

The isolated globule B335 contains a single, low luminosity Class 0 protostar associated with a bipolar nebula and outflow system seen nearly perpendicular to its axis. We observed…

JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects. II. Deep Constraints on Giant Planets and a Planet Candidate Outside of the Spiral Disk Around SAO 206462

Gabriele Cugno, Jarron Leisenring, Kevin R. Wagner +17

We present JWST/NIRCam F187N, F200W, F405N and F410M direct imaging data of the disk surrounding SAO 206462. Previous images show a very structured disk, with a pair of spiral arms…

JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects. I. Constraints on Planets Exterior to The Spiral Disk Around MWC 758

Kevin Wagner, Jarron Leisenring, Gabriele Cugno +18

MWC 758 is a young star hosting a spiral protoplanetary disk. The spirals are likely companion-driven, and two previously-identified candidate companions have been identified -- on…
