MINDS survey of silicates in T Tauri disks: Correlation between dust and gas
J. Varga, Th. Henning, L. B. F. M. Waters +20
Context. Silicates are key constituents of planet-forming disks and major building blocks of rocky planets. Mid-infrared spectral features of micron-sized silicate grains trace gra…
MINDS: Intertwined evolution of dust and gas in large planet-forming disks. A diversity driven by halted pebble drift?
Benoît Tabone, Milou Temmink, Laurens B. F. M. Waters +25
(Abridged) We aim to investigate the inner regions of large and massive disks orbiting T Tauri stars, thought to be progenitors of systems with wide-orbit planets and possible case…
Information content of JWST transmission spectroscopy of the exoplanet HAT-P-12b from the optical to the mid-infrared
L. Heinke, M. Min, J. Bouwman +18
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) provides low- to medium-resolution spectra with unprecedented precision and broad near- to mid-infrared wavelength coverage, enabling detailed…
JWST MIRI-MRS observations of the Red Rectangle: AIB class transformation in the outer nebula
A. Ebenbichler, P. Moraga Baez, A. Candian +8
Aims: We characterize the mid-infrared spectrum of the outer regions of the Red Rectangle nebula to probe the carbonaceous dust and molecular content beyond the circumbinary disk.…
Detection of CO, CO, and HO in the atmosphere of the warm sub-Saturn HAT-P-12b
N. Crouzet, B. Edwards, T. Konings +29
The chemical composition of warm gas giant exoplanet atmospheres (with Teq < 1000 K) is not well known due to the lack of observational constraints. HAT-P-12 b is a warm, sub-Satur…
Evidence for SiO cloud nucleation in the rogue planet PSO J318
P. Mollière, H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews +25
Silicate clouds are known to significantly impact the spectra of late L-type brown dwarfs, with observable absorption features at ~ 10 micron. JWST has reopened our window to the m…
