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…
Occulter to Earth: Prospects for studying Earth-like planets with the E-ELT and a space-based occulter
Markus Janson, Thomas Henning, Sascha P. Quanz +4
Direct detection and characterization of Earth-like planets around Sun-like stars is a core task for evaluating the prevalence of habitability and life in the Universe. Here, we di…
ESA Voyage 2050 White Paper: Detecting life outside our solar system with a large high-contrast-imaging mission
Ignas Snellen, Simon Albrecht, Guillem Anglada-Escude +64
In this white paper, we recommend the European Space Agency plays a proactive role in developing a global collaborative effort to construct a large high-contrast imaging space tele…
Atmospheric characterization of terrestrial exoplanets in the mid-infrared: biosignatures, habitability & diversity
Sascha P. Quanz, Olivier Absil, Daniel Angerhausen +45
Exoplanet science is one of the most thriving fields of modern astrophysics. A major goal is the atmospheric characterization of dozens of small, terrestrial exoplanets in order to…
