The PLATO Mission
Heike Rauer, Conny Aerts, Juan Cabrera +842
PLATO (PLAnetary Transits and Oscillations of stars) is ESA's M3 mission designed to detect and characterise extrasolar planets and perform asteroseismic monitoring of a large numb…
The James Webb Space Telescope Mission
Jonathan P. Gardner, John C. Mather, Randy Abbott +1004
Twenty-six years ago a small committee report, building on earlier studies, expounded a compelling and poetic vision for the future of astronomy, calling for an infrared-optimized…
Life beyond 30: probing the -20<M_UV<-17 luminosity function at 8<z<13 with the NIRCam parallel field of the MIRI Deep Survey
Pablo G. Pérez-González, Luca Costantin, Danial Langeroodi +41
We present the ultraviolet luminosity function and an estimate of the cosmic star formation rate density at derived from deep NIRCam observations taken in parallel with th…
The Science Performance of JWST as Characterized in Commissioning
Jane Rigby, Marshall Perrin, Michael McElwain +623
This paper characterizes the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period. We summarize the performanc…
Silicon in the dust formation zone of IRC +10216 as observed with PACS and SPIRE on board Herschel
L. Decin, J. Cernicharo, M. J. Barlow +36
The interstellar medium is enriched primarily by matter ejected from evolved low and intermediate mass stars. The outflows from these stars create a circumstellar envelope in which…
Detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid, HCl, in IRC+10216 with the Herschel SPIRE and PACS spectrometers
J. Cernicharo, L. Decin, M. J. Barlow +31
We report on the detection of anhydrous hydrochloric acid (hydrogen chlorine, HCl) in the carbon-rich star IRC+10216 using the spectroscopic facilities onboard the Herschel satelli…
