NIRCam Performance on JWST In Flight
Marcia J. Rieke, Douglas M. Kelly, Karl Misselt +7
The Near Infrared Camera for the James Webb Space Telescope is delivering the imagery that astronomers have hoped for ever since JWST was proposed back in the 1990s. In the Commiss…
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…
JWST/NIRCam Coronagraphy: Commissioning and First On-Sky Results
Julien H. Girard, Jarron Leisenring, Jens Kammerer +53
In a cold and stable space environment, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST or "Webb") reaches unprecedented sensitivities at wavelengths beyond 2 microns, serving most fields of…
The Science Performance of JWST as Characterized in Commissioning
Jane Rigby, Marshall Perrin, Michael McElwain +623
This paper characterizes the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period. We summarize the performanc…
JWST Noise Floor II: Systematic Error Sources in JWST NIRCam Time Series
Everett Schlawin, Jarron Leisenring, Michael W. McElwain +7
JWST holds great promise in characterizing atmospheres of transiting exoplanets, potentially providing insights into Earth-sized planets within the habitable zones of M dwarf host…
