Ejecta, Rings, and Dust in SN 1987A with JWST MIRI/MRS
O. C. Jones, P. J. Kavanagh, M. J. Barlow +31
Supernova (SN) 1987A is the nearest supernova in 400 years. Using the {\em JWST} MIRI Medium Resolution Spectrograph, we spatially resolved the ejecta, equatorial ring (ER) a…
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…
JWST NIRSpec observations of Supernova 1987A -- from the inner ejecta to the reverse shock
J. Larsson, C. Fransson, B. Sargent +23
We present initial results from JWST NIRSpec integral field unit observations of the nearby Supernova (SN) 1987A. The observations provide the first spatially-resolved spectroscopy…
Mid-infrared imaging of Supernova 1987A
Mikako Matsuura, Roger Wesson, Richard G. Arendt +9
At a distance of 50 kpc, Supernova 1987A is an ideal target to study how a young supernova (SN) evolves in time. Its equatorial ring, filled with material expelled from the progeni…
Final Spitzer IRAC Observations of the Rise and Fall of SN 1987A
Richard G. Arendt, Eli Dwek, Patrice Bouchet +4
Spitzer's final Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) observations of SN 1987A show the 3.6 and 4.5 m emission from the equatorial ring (ER) continues a period of steady decline. Deconvo…
High angular resolution ALMA images of dust and molecules in the SN 1987A ejecta
Phil Cigan, Mikako Matsuura, Haley L. Gomez +23
We present high angular resolution (~80 mas) ALMA continuum images of the SN 1987A system, together with CO =2 1, =6 5, and SiO =5 $\!\…
