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 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 Hubble Ultracool Multiplicity (HUM) Survey. I. Characterizing Sensitivity to Companions at Sub-Diffraction Limit Separations with HST WFC3/IR
Kunal Mehta, Matthew De Furio, Daniella Bardalez Gagliuffi +6
We characterize the sensitivity of a double point-spread function (PSF) fitting algorithm -- employing empirical, position-dependent PSF models -- for detecting companions using th…
First Demonstration of Kernel Phase Interferometry on JWST/MIRI: Prospects for Future Planet Searches Around Post Main Sequence Stars
Chelsea Adelman, Steph Sallum, Matthew De Furio +1
Kernel phase interferometry (KPI) is a post-processing technique that treats a conventional telescope as an interferometer by accurately modeling a telescope pupil as an array of v…
The Small Separation A-Star Companion Population: Tentative Signatures of Enhanced Multiplicity with Primary Mass
Matthew De Furio, Tyler Gardner, John D. Monnier +6
We present updated results from our near-infrared long-baseline interferometry (LBI) survey to constrain the multiplicity properties of intermediate-mass A-type stars within 80 pc.…
JWST 1.5 μm and 4.8 μm Photometry of Y Dwarfs
Loïc Albert, Sandy K. Leggett, Per Calissendorff +20
Brown dwarfs lack nuclear fusion and cool with time; the coldest known have an effective temperature below 500 K, and are known as Y dwarfs. We present a James Webb Space Telescope…
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 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…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems III: Aperture Masking Interferometric Observations of the star HIP 65426 at 3.8 um
Shrishmoy Ray, Steph Sallum, Sasha Hinkley +121
We present aperture masking interferometry (AMI) observations of the star HIP 65426 at as a part of the JWST Direct Imaging Early Release Science (ERS) program obtai…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems IV: NIRISS Aperture Masking Interferometry Performance and Lessons Learned
Steph Sallum, Shrishmoy Ray, Jens Kammerer +120
We present a performance analysis for the aperture masking interferometry (AMI) mode on board the James Webb Space Telescope Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (JWST/NI…
The Small Separation A-Star Companion Population: First Results with CHARA/MIRC-X
Matthew De Furio, Tyler Gardner, John Monnier +9
We present preliminary results from our long-baseline interferometry (LBI) survey to constrain the multiplicity properties of intermediate-mass A-type stars within 80pc. Previous m…
