JWST NIRSpec's Cosmic Ray Experience at L2

Bernard J. Rauscher, D. J. Fixsen

We characterize cosmic ray interactions in blanked-off \JWST NIRSpec ``dark'' exposures. In its Sun/Earth-Moon L2 halo orbit, \JWST encounters energetic ions that penetrate NIRSpec…

Constraints on Strongly-Interacting Dark Matter from the James Webb Space Telescope

Peizhi Du, Rouven Essig, Bernard J. Rauscher +1

Direct-detection searches for dark matter are insensitive to dark matter particles that have large interactions with ordinary matter, which are stopped in the atmosphere or the Ear…

A warm Neptune's methane reveals core mass and vigorous atmospheric mixing

David K. Sing, Zafar Rustamkulov, Daniel P. Thorngren +18

Observations of transiting gas giant exoplanets have revealed a pervasive depletion of methane, which has only recently been identified atmospherically. The depletion is thought to…

Medium Resolution 0.97-5.3 micron spectra of Very Young Benchmark Brown Dwarfs with NIRSpec onboard the James Webb Space Telescope

Elena Manjavacas, Pascal Tremblin, Stephan Birkmann +7

Spectra of young benchmark brown dwarfs with well-known ages are vital to characterize other brown dwarfs, for which ages are in general not known. These spectra are also crucial t…

TEMPLATES: A Robust Outlier Rejection Method for JWST/NIRSpec Integral Field Spectroscopy

Taylor A. Hutchison, Brian D. Welch, Jane R. Rigby +13

We describe a custom outlier rejection algorithm for JWST/NIRSpec integral field spectroscopy. This method uses a layered sigma clipping approach that adapts clipping thresholds ba…
