Charge migration characterization in the METIS H2RG detectors
Danny Gasman, Benoît Serra, Roy van Boekel +4
The Mid-infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) is one of the first-light instruments of the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). For the L and M band, the instrument makes use of…
MINDS: Complementary inclinations in the binary system HK Tau reveal gas- and ice-phase chemistry
Alice Somigliana, Giulia Perotti, Nicolás T. Kurtovic +18
[Abridged] HK Tau is a roughly equal mass pre-main sequence binary system consisting of a low-inclination primary (57 deg) and an edge-on (83 deg) secondary. We present JWST/MIRI o…
MINDS survey of silicates in T Tauri disks: Correlation between dust and gas
J. Varga, Th. Henning, L. B. F. M. Waters +20
Context. Silicates are key constituents of planet-forming disks and major building blocks of rocky planets. Mid-infrared spectral features of micron-sized silicate grains trace gra…
Oxygen and nitrogen isotopologues on cold COCONUTS-2b observed with MIRI/MRS
H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews, P. Mollière +12
Linking the composition of gas giant planets to their formation paths has long been a goal in exoplanet science. Especially, cold gas giants with temperatures below 500K have…
MINDS. Anatomy of a water-rich, inclined, brown dwarf disk: lack of abundant hydrocarbons
Giulia Perotti, Nicolás T. Kurtovic, Thomas Henning +23
2MASS J04381486+2611399 (or J0438) is one of the few young brown dwarfs (BD) with a highly inclined () disk. Here we report results from JWST-MIRI MRS, HST-ACS a…
MINDS: The molecule-rich disc of the Herbig star HD 35929 revealed with JWST/MIRI
Till Kaeufer, Rens Waters, Danny Gasman +16
Our knowledge of the chemical composition of the gas in the inner disc of intermediate-mass young stars is limited, due to the lack of suitable instrumentation. The launch of JWST…
