Near-infrared spectra of chemically peculiar stars and applications to kilonova spectra

Nanae Domoto, Masaomi Tanaka, Wako Aoki +11

Kilonova spectra provide information on rapid neutron-capture nucleosynthesis in neutron star mergers. However, it remains challenging to identify individual elements in kilonova s…

A Search for helium in the atmospheres of three sub-Neptunes and a super-Earth around M-dwarfs

Kiyoe Kawauchi, Norio Narita, Yuichi Ito +26

Thousands of sub-Neptunes have been discovered mainly through space-based surveys such as Kepler and TESS. Their bulk compositions and internal structures are thought to reflect th…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems VIII: patchy forsterite and enstatite clouds in the atmosphere of VHS 1256 b, retrieval lessons learned and outlook to the future

Niall Whiteford, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +123

JWST defines a new era for the data-driven approach of retrieval modelling, which has become a cornerstone tool for the statistical inference of exoplanetary and brown dwarf proper…

Discovery of an Unbound Flyby Companion of UBC 63: In the Immediate Aftermath of a Close Encounter

Samrat Biswas, Biman J Medhi, Sergio Messina +8

We re-investigate the open cluster UBC 63 using the Gaia DR3 data and show that, rather than being a single cluster as previously classified, it is a compelling candidate for a dou…

Revealing α-Element's Past with Subaru/IRD: Oxygen Abundance of 35 Very Metal-Poor Stars from Near-IR OH lines

Bakuh Danang Setyo Budi, Wako Aoki, Nicholas Storm +10

Oxygen abundances in very and extremely metal-poor (V/EMP) stars provide critical constraints on early massive stars' nucleosynthesis. An Oxygen abundance analysis is presented for…

EPISODE II: Variability in the CO and HO rovibrational absorption lines in a periodically variable protostar EC 53

Seokho Lee, Jeong-Eun Lee, Chul-Hwan Kim +19

We present two-epoch JWST NIRSpec and MIRI observations of the young protostar EC 53 (V371 Ser), a periodically variable source with well-characterized quiescent and burst phases.…

The mass of TOI-1883 b: A low density super-Neptune in the ridge regime transiting an early-M dwarf

Izuru Fukuda, Norio Narita, Akihiko Fukui +36

Recent large-scale transit surveys conducted by space telescopes such as Kepler and TESS have revealed a vast number of exoplanets, uncovering the diversity of their population. On…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems. VII. Molecular Mapping Performance with JWST/MIRI MRS: VHS 1256 b as a case study

Mathilde Mâlin, Anthony Boccaletti, Benjamin Charnay +29

VHS 1256 b was the first planetary-mass companion to be observed with the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (JWST/MIRI) using the Medium-Resolution Spectrometer…

Discovery of a Low-Mass Companion to the Accelerating Star HIP 53005 with Strongly Conflicting Mass Estimates

Taichi Uyama, Thayne Currie, Jerry W. Xuan +22

We present the discovery of a low-mass companion located at 0\farcs{}85 () from the early-type 1.2 Gyr-old star HIP 53005 using direct imagin…

Probing the magnetic fields and dust properties in the young embedded star-forming region AFGL 6366S using Near Infrared and Optical linear polarimetry

Samrat Biswas, Biman J Medhi, Motohide Tamura +2

We present Near-Infrared (NIR) and Optical linear polarimetry towards the partially embedded cluster AFGL 6366S. The polarization ranges from 0.44-10.3 per cent in NIR and 0.16-11.…

V899 Mon: An Outbursting Protostar With Peculiar Light Curve And Its Transition Phases

J. P. Ninan, D. K. Ojha, T. Baug +7

We present a detailed study of V899 Mon (a new member in the FUors/EXors family of young low-mass stars undergoing outburst), based on our long-term monitoring of the source starti…

Near Infrared Imaging Survey of Bok Globules: Density Structure

Ryo Kandori, Yasushi Nakajima, Motohide Tamura +11

On the basis of near-infrared imaging observations, we derived visual extinction (Av) distribution toward ten Bok globules through measurements of both the color excess (E_{H-K}) a…
