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…

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…
