MICONIC: The spatial relationship between star formation and the AGN in Centaurus A revealed by JWST/MIRI

O. C. Jones, M. L. Jones, D. Dicken +21

Centaurus A (Cen A), the nearest active radio galaxy, hosts a warped dust disc formed in a gas-rich merger. We present JWST/MIRI imaging in three filters, F560W, F770W, and F1130W,…

MICONIC: The multiphase circumnuclear region of Centaurus A as seen with JWST/MIRI MRS observations. I. Spectral inventory and properties of the warm molecular disk

L. Evangelista, P. Guillard, J. Martin +21

Supermassive black holes power Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), injecting energy that regulates accretion and shapes host galaxies. We investigate the morphology, excitation, and kine…

Evidence for SiO cloud nucleation in the rogue planet PSO J318

P. Mollière, H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews +25

Silicate clouds are known to significantly impact the spectra of late L-type brown dwarfs, with observable absorption features at ~ 10 micron. JWST has reopened our window to the m…

MINDS: The very low-mass star and brown dwarf sample. Detections and trends in the inner disk gas

A. M. Arabhavi, I. Kamp, Th. Henning +22

Planet-forming disks around brown dwarfs and very low-mass stars (VLMS) are on average less massive and are expected to undergo faster radial solid transport than their higher mass…

MINDS. JWST-MIRI reveals a peculiar CO-rich chemistry in the drift-dominated disk CX Tau

Marissa Vlasblom, Milou Temmink, Sierra L. Grant +20

Radial drift of icy pebbles can have a large impact on the chemistry of the inner regions of protoplanetary disks. Compact dust disks (50 au) are suggested to have a high…

JWST Observations of Young protoStars (JOYS). HH 211: the textbook case of a protostellar jet and outflow

A. Caratti o Garatti, T. P. Ray, P. J. Kavanagh +22

We use the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) and its Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) (5-28 um), to study the embedded HH 211 flow. We map a 0.95'x0.22' region, covering the full ext…

MINDS: JWST/NIRCam imaging of the protoplanetary disk PDS 70

V. Christiaens, M. Samland, Th. Henning +28

Context. Two protoplanets have recently been discovered within the PDS 70 protoplanetary disk. JWST/NIRCam offers a unique opportunity to characterize them and their birth environm…

JWST Observations of Young protoStars (JOYS): Linked accretion and ejection in a Class I protobinary system

Łukasz Tychoniec, Martijn L. van Gelder, Ewine F. van Dishoeck +19

Accretion and ejection sets the outcome of the star and planet formation process. The mid-infrared wavelength range offers key tracers of those processes that were difficult to det…

JOYS: MIRI/MRS spectroscopy of gas-phase molecules from the high-mass star-forming region IRAS 23385+6053

L. Francis, M. L. van Gelder, E. F. van Dishoeck +16

Space-based mid-IR spectroscopy provides tracers of warm gas in star-forming regions that are inaccessible from the ground. Past mid-IR spectra of bright high-mass protostars in th…

Consistent dust and gas models for protoplanetary disks. I. Disk shape, dust settling, opacities, and PAHs

P. Woitke, M. Min, C. Pinte +19

We propose a set of standard assumptions for the modelling of Class II and III protoplanetary disks, which includes detailed continuum radiative transfer, thermo-chemical modelling…

Mid-IR spectra of Pre-Main Sequence Herbig stars: an explanation for the non-detections of water lines

S. Antonellini, I. Kamp, F. Lahuis +7

The mid-IR detection rate of water lines in disks around Herbig stars disks is about 5\%, while it is around 50\% for disks around TTauri stars. The reason for this is still unclea…

[OI] disk emission in the Taurus star forming region

G. Aresu, I. Kamp, R. Meijerink +8

The structure of protoplanetary disks is thought to be linked to the temperature and chemistry of their dust and gas. Whether the disk is flat or flaring depends on the amount of r…

Searching for gas emission lines in Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) spectra of young stars in Taurus

C. Baldovin-Saavedra, M. Audard, M. Güdel +6

Our knowledge of circumstellar disks has traditionally been based on studies of dust. However, gas dominates the disk mass and its study is key to understand the star and planet fo…

X-ray Studies of Planetary Systems: An Astro2010 Decadal Survey White Paper

Eric Feigelson, Jeremy Drake, Ronald Elsner +7

While it may seem counterintuitive that X-ray astronomy should give any insights into low-temperature planetary systems, planets orbit stars whose magnetized surfaces divert a smal…
