Breaking the brightness barrier: JWST/NIRCam DHS spectroscopy for high-precision time-series observations
Achrene Dyrek, John Stansberry, Louis E. Bergeron +12
Many of the most scientifically compelling exoplanets orbit bright nearby stars that exceed the brightness limits of existing JWST spectroscopic observing modes. To address this li…
