The extragalactic science of the KMOS VVVX-GalCen spectroscopic survey II: Discovery of a galaxy cluster at z = 0.089 behind the Galactic plane

E. O. Schmidt, C. Valotto, C. Villalon +33

The Zone of Avoidance (ZoA) continues to represent the most significant incompleteness in the extragalactic census of the Local Universe. It is evident that photometric surveys alo…

Unresolved triples in the open cluster NGC 2437 (M 46) confirmed by the KMOS VVVX-GalCen Spectroscopic Survey

D. Minniti, T. Palma, C. O. Obasi +31

Recent optical and near-IR photometric databases like Gaia data release 3 (DR3) and the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea eXtended (VVVX) ESO public survey allow the exploration of…

Unresolved triple systems in the aged open cluster Trumpler 19: Discovery, confirmation, and implications

D. Minniti, R. K. Saito, V. D. Ivanov +31

It is difficult to identify unresolved triple and higher-order systems beyond the solar vicinity. Star clusters yield controlled environments with known physical parameters, provid…

Horizontal and vertical exoplanet thermal structure from a JWST spectroscopic eclipse map

Ryan C. Challener, Megan Weiner Mansfield, Patricio E. Cubillos +33

Highly-irradiated giant exoplanets known as "ultra-hot Jupiters" are anticipated to exhibit large variations of atmospheric temperature and chemistry as a function of longitude, la…

Testing the performance of cross-correlation techniques to search for molecular features in JWST NIRSpec G395H observations of transiting exoplanets

Emma Esparza-Borges, Mercedes López-Morales, Enric Pallé +18

Cross-correlations techniques offer an alternative method to search for molecular species in JWST observations of exoplanet atmospheres. In a previous article, we applied cross-cor…

A Benchmark JWST Near-Infrared Spectrum for the Exoplanet WASP-39b

A. L. Carter, E. M. May, N. Espinoza +77

Observing exoplanets through transmission spectroscopy supplies detailed information on their atmospheric composition, physics, and chemistry. Prior to JWST, these observations wer…

Sulphur dioxide in the mid-infrared transmission spectrum of WASP-39b

Diana Powell, Adina D. Feinstein, Elspeth K. H. Lee +70

The recent inference of sulphur dioxide (SO) in the atmosphere of the hot (1100 K), Saturn-mass exoplanet WASP-39b from near-infrared JWST observations suggests that phot…

Nightside clouds and disequilibrium chemistry on the hot Jupiter WASP-43b

Taylor J. Bell, Nicolas Crouzet, Patricio E. Cubillos +80

Hot Jupiters are among the best-studied exoplanets, but it is still poorly understood how their chemical composition and cloud properties vary with longitude. Theoretical models pr…

A Benchmark White Dwarf-Ultracool Dwarf Wide Field Binary

Thiago Ferreira, Roberto K. Saito, Dante Minniti +8

We present the discovery and multi-wavelength characterisation of VVV J1438-6158 AB, a new field wide-binary system consisting of a 4.6(+5.5-2.4) Gyr and Teff = 9500+/-125 K DA whi…
