The Dyn-Atmo Survey: JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy of dynamical benchmark GJ 758 B

Alexander Madurowicz, Emily Rickman, Daniella Bardalez Gagliuffi +22

We present new JWST/NIRSpec IFU high contrast spectroscopic observations of the brown dwarf companion GJ 758 B. Extensive radial velocity monitoring of the primary has enabled high…

The Dyn-Atmo Survey: High-contrast Imaging Spectroscopy of the Substellar Companion HD 13724 B with the JWST NIRSpec IFU

Kielan K. W. Hoch, Alex Madurowicz, Evert Nasedkin +22

We present the first spectral analysis from the JWST Cycle 3 GO Program #6362, the Dyn-Atmo Survey of dynamical-atmospheric benchmarks, characterizing the atmospheres of directly-i…

Benchmark Brown Dwarfs as Chemical Laboratories: Linking System Bulk Properties to Atmospheric Retrievals

Viktória Kecskeméthy, Ben Burningham, Fei Wang +8

We present the first atmospheric retrieval analysis of two compositional benchmark mid-L dwarfs -- SDSSJ141659.78+500626.4 and GJ 499 C -- using the \textit{Brewster} retrieval fra…

Improving the Physical Interpretability of Gaussian Processes in Stellar Activity Modeling: A Study Case on Photometric Variability Among Stellar Clusters

Leslie Moranta, Jonathan Gagné, Jacqueline K. Faherty +12

Gaussian Processes (GPs) are widely used to model stellar variability in photometric surveys, but a statistically successful fit does not guarantee that the inferred hyperparameter…

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…

The JWST weather report: Unravelling the atmospheric variability of isolated worlds using principal component analysis

Merle A. Schrader, Johanna M. Vos, Evert Nasedkin +17

Brown dwarf variability directly probes atmospheric dynamics beyond the Solar System, and recent JWST time-resolved spectroscopy has opened a new window into these processes. Princ…

Silicate Clouds, SiO, and Molecular Trends across the L-T Sequence: A JWST/MIRI LRS Spectral Library of Brown Dwarfs

Sam Barber, Stanimir Metchev, Genaro Suárez +9

We present the results of a survey program with JWST's MIRI LRS that obtained 514 m R~100 spectra of twenty-three L0T6 dwarfs. This spectral type range spans the formation…

On the Detectability of Volcanic Exo-Ios That May Fuel Auroras on Super-Jupiters

Brooke Kotten, Mary Anne Limbach, Johanna M. Vos +12

Studies suggest Jupiter's aurorae are supplied with plasma from volcanic outflows on the planet's innermost moon, Io. Repeating bursts of radio emission thought to trace massively…

Inspecting Cloudy Substellar Atmospheres with JWST MIRI Synthetic Magnitudes from Spitzer Mid-infrared Spectra

Jolie LHeureux, Genaro Suárez, Johanna M. Vos +4

We examine the positions of substellar objects in mid-infrared color-magnitude and color-color diagrams to distinguish between cloudy and cloud-free atmospheres. Using Spitzer mid-…

Panchromatic View of the Frigid Jovian Exoplanet COCONUTS-2 b

Matthieu Ravet, Mickaël Bonnefoy, Gaël Chauvin +24

We use a high signal-to-noise MIRI-LRS spectrum (5.45 - 11 m, R ) of COCONUTS-2~b revealing prominent molecular features of HO, CH and NH. This dataset…
