Oxygen and nitrogen isotopologues on cold COCONUTS-2b observed with MIRI/MRS
H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews, P. Mollière +12
Linking the composition of gas giant planets to their formation paths has long been a goal in exoplanet science. Especially, cold gas giants with temperatures below 500K have…
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…
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…
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…
