The Y Dwarf Companion to the White Dwarf WD 0806-66: Resolving the Discrepancy Between Atmospheric and Evolutionary Models
S. K. Leggett, Pascal Tremblin
James Webb Space Telescope near- and mid-infrared spectroscopy has been published by Voyer et al. (2025) and Lew et al. (2026) for the Y dwarf which is a distant companion to the w…
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 datase…
A JWST/MIRI view of k Andromedae b: Refining its mass, age, and physical parameters
N. Godoy, E. Choquet, E. Serabyn +7
Context. kAndb is a substellar companion near the planet-brown dwarf boundary, orbiting a B9IV star at 50-100 au. Estimates of its age and mass vary, fueling a decade-long debate.…
X-SHYNE: X-Shooter spectra of young exoplanet analogs II. Presentation and analysis of the full library
Simon Petrus, Gaël Chauvin, Mickaël Bonnefoy +29
The X-SHYNE library is a homogeneous sample of 43 medium-resolution (R=8000) infrared (0.3-2.5um) spectra of young (<500Myr), low-mass (<20Mjup), and cold (Teff=600-2000K) isolated…
Panchromatic characterization of the Y0 brown dwarf WISEP J173835.52+273258.9 using JWST/MIRI
Malavika Vasist, Paul Mollire, Helena Kühnle +9
Cold brown dwarf atmospheres are good training grounds for analyzing temperate giant planets. WISEP J173835.52+273258.9 (WISE 1738) is an isolated Y0 brown dwarf with a temperature…
JWST/MIRI observations of the young TWA 27 system: hydrocarbon disk chemistry, silicate clouds, evidence for a CPD
P. Patapis, M. Morales-Calderón, A. M. Arabhavi +39
The Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) enables the characterisation of young self-luminous gas giants at previously inaccessible wavelengths, r…
