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 COMPASS Program: The 3--5m transmission spectrum of LTT 1445 A b
Natasha E. Batalha, Nicole Wallack, Tyler Gordon +16
The search for an atmosphere on the closest rocky M dwarf planet, LTT 1445 A b, has been the subject of intense investigation from both the ground and space. Here, we present the f…
JWST COMPASS: NIRSpec/G395H Transmission Observations of the Sub-Neptune HD 15337 c
Nicole L. Wallack, Peter Gao, Michael Greklek-McKeon +17
We present the 3-5 m transmission spectrum of HD 15337 c (TOI-402.02), a sub-Neptune (2.526 R, 6.792 M, T656 K) around a K1V star observe…
An Ancient Brown Dwarf Transiting a Metal-Poor Thick Disk Star
Jéa Adams Redai, Vedant Chandra, Samuel W. Yee +20
We report the discovery of TOI-7019b, the first transiting brown dwarf (BD) known to orbit a star that is part of the Milky Way's ancient thick disk, as defined chemically ([Fe/H]…
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 obta…
JWST COMPASS: NIRSpec/G395H Transmission Observations of the Super-Earth TOI-776b
Lili Alderson, Sarah E. Moran, Nicole L. Wallack +15
We present two transit observations of the 520K, 1.85R, 4.0M super-Earth TOI-776b with JWST NIRSpec/G395H, resulting in a 2.8-5.2m transmission spectrum…
