Detection of CO, CO, and HO in the atmosphere of the warm sub-Saturn HAT-P-12b
N. Crouzet, B. Edwards, T. Konings +29
The chemical composition of warm gas giant exoplanet atmospheres (with Teq < 1000 K) is not well known due to the lack of observational constraints. HAT-P-12 b is a warm, sub-Satur…
SO2, silicate clouds, but no CH4 detected in a warm Neptune
Achrene Dyrek, Michiel Min, Leen Decin +44
WASP-107b is a warm (~740 K) transiting planet with a Neptune-like mass of ~30.5 Earth masses and Jupiter-like radius of ~0.94 Jupiter radius, whose extended atmosphere is eroding.…
Evidence for SiO cloud nucleation in the rogue planet PSO J318
P. Mollière, H. Kühnle, E. C. Matthews +25
Silicate clouds are known to significantly impact the spectra of late L-type brown dwarfs, with observable absorption features at ~ 10 micron. JWST has reopened our window to the m…
JWST/MIRI observations of the young TWA 27 system: hydrocarbon disk chemistry, silicate clouds, evidence for a CPD
P. Patapis, M. Morales-Calderón, A. M. Arabhavi +39
The Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) enables the characterisation of young self-luminous gas giants at previously inaccessible wavelengths, r…
MIRI-JWST mid-infrared direct imaging of the debris disk of HD106906
Daniel Rouan, Anthony Boccaletti, Clément Perrot +20
We report MIRI-JWST coronagraphic observations at 11.3 and 15.5 mic of the debris disk around the young star HD 106906. The observations were made to characterize the structure, te…
HCN and C2H2 in the atmosphere of a T8.5+T9 brown dwarf binary
Elisabeth C. Matthews, Paul Mollière, Helena Kühnle +22
T-type brown dwarfs present an opportunity to explore atmospheres teeming with molecules such as H2O, CH4 and NH3, which exhibit a wealth of absorption features in the mid-infrared…
