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…
NASA Exoplanet Exploration Program (ExEP) Science Gap List
Karl Stapelfeldt, Eric Mamajek
The Exoplanet Exploration Program (ExEP) is chartered by the NASA Astrophysics Division to carry out science, research, and technology tasks that advance NASA's science goals for e…
Observations of highly inclined disks with ALMA. Results from 12CO gas and continuum observations
Laurine Martinien, Gaspard Duchêne, Ãlvaro Ribas +4
[Abridged] We aim to study the radial and vertical extents of 12CO gas, millimeter dust thermal emission and optical/NIR scattered light by dust in disks. We analyze a sample of 14…
Keck Observations in the INfrared of Taurus and Oph Exoplanets And Ultracool dwarfs (KOINTREAU) I: A Planetary-Mass Companion and a Disk-Obscured Stellar Companion Discovered in Taurus
Samuel A. U. Walker, Michael C. Liu, Dimitri Mawet +10
We present the first discoveries from Keck Observations in the INfrared of Taurus and Oph Exoplanets And Ultracool dwarfs (KOINTREAU), an adaptive optics imaging survey of you…
Variation of the disk thickness across ice bands: A method to determine ice abundances in highly inclined protoplanetary disks
Laurine Martinien, Gaspard Duchêne, François Ménard +6
The James Webb Space Telescope provides unprecedented information to study ices in protoplanetary disks. However, the saturation of ice bands in highly inclined disks hinders the m…
Hubble reveals complex multi-scale structure in the edge-on protoplanetary disk IRAS 23077+6707
Kristina Monsch, Joshua B. Lovell, Karl R. Stapelfeldt +11
We present high-resolution () Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) imaging of the near edge-on () protoplanetary disk IRAS 23077…
