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 from the nearest brown dwarfs III: Heterogeneous clouds and Thermochemical instabilities as possible drivers of WISE 1049AB's spectroscopic variability
Natalia Oliveros-Gomez, Elena Manjavacas, Theodora Karalidi +17
We present a new analysis of the spectroscopic variability of WISE~J104915.57531906.1AB (WISE~1049AB, L7.5+T0.5), observed using the NIRSpec instrument onboard the James Webb Sp…
Worlds Next Door: A Candidate Giant Planet Imaged in the Habitable Zone of Cen A. I. Observations, Orbital and Physical Properties, and Exozodi Upper Limits
Charles Beichman, Aniket Sanghi, Dimitri Mawet +27
We report on coronagraphic observations of the nearest solar-type star, Cen A, using the MIRI instrument on the James Webb Space Telescope. With three epochs of observation (A…
First unambiguous detection of ammonia in the atmosphere of a planetary mass companion with JWST/MIRI coronagraphs
Mathilde Mâlin, Anthony Boccaletti, Clément Perrot +28
The newly accessible mid-infrared (MIR) window offered by the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) for exoplanet imaging is expected to provide valuable information to characterize th…
Combined analysis of the 12.8 and 15 JWST/MIRI eclipse observations of TRAPPIST-1 b
Elsa Ducrot, Pierre-Olivier Lagage, Michiel Min +36
The first JWST/MIRI photometric observations of TRAPPIST-1 b allowed for the detection of the thermal emission of the planet at 15 , suggesting that the planet could be a bare…
