JWST NIRCam Defocused Imaging: Photometric Stability Performance and How it Can Sense Mirror Tilts

Everett Schlawin, Thomas Beatty, Brian Brooks +25

We use JWST NIRCam short wavelength photometry to capture a transit lightcurve of the exoplanet HAT-P-14 b to assess performance as part of instrument commissioning. The short wave…
