Magnetic field strengths of hot giant exoplanets consistent with Solar System values

Julia V. Seidel, Vivien Parmentier, Bibiana Prinoth +29

Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the universe. They play a key role in shaping the activity of stars, the habitability of rocky planets, and the long-term retention of planetary a…

A Characterization of JWST MIRI Detector Persistence and Implications for High-Contrast Imaging

Alisha Vasan, Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg +2

The JWST MIRI detector exhibits a flux deficit persistence, but its timescales and impacts remain largely uncharacterized, particularly at the longest imaging wavelengths. In this…

K2-18b Does Not Meet The Standards of Evidence For Life

Kevin B. Stevenson, Jacob Lustig-Yaeger, E. M. May +7

K2-18b, a temperate sub-Neptune, has garnered significant attention due to claims of possible biosignatures in its atmosphere. Low-confidence detections of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) a…

NIRCam yells at cloud: JWST MIRI imaging can directly detect exoplanets of the same temperature, mass, age, and orbital separation as Saturn and Jupiter

Rachel Bowens-Rubin, James Mang, Mary Anne Limbach +9

NIRCam and MIRI coronagraphy have successfully demonstrated the ability to directly image young sub-Jupiter mass and mature gas-giant exoplanets. However, these modes struggle to r…

Thermal Emission and Confirmation of the Frigid White Dwarf Exoplanet WD 1856+534b

Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg, Ryan J. MacDonald +12

We report the detection of thermal emission from and confirm the planetary nature of WD 1856+534b, the first transiting planet known to orbit a white dwarf star. Observations with…

The MIRI Exoplanets Orbiting White Dwarfs (MEOW) Survey: Mid-Infrared Excess Reveals a Giant Planet Candidate around a Nearby White Dwarf

Mary Anne Limbach, Andrew Vanderburg, Alexander Venner +17

The MIRI Exoplanets Orbiting White dwarfs (MEOW) Survey is a cycle 2 JWST program to search for exoplanets around dozens of nearby white dwarfs via infrared excess and direct imagi…
