JWST MIRI and NIRCam Unveil Previously Unseen Infrared Stellar Populations in NGC 6822
Conor Nally, Olivia C. Jones, Laura Lenkić +9
NGC 6822 is a nearby (~490 kpc) non-interacting low-metallicity (0.2 Zsolar) dwarf galaxy which hosts several prominent H ii regions, including sites of highly embedded active star…
A JWST/MIRI and NIRCam Analysis of the Young Stellar Object Population in the Spitzer I region of NGC 6822
Laura Lenkić, Conor Nally, Olivia C. Jones +8
We present an imaging survey of the Spitzer I star-forming region in NGC 6822 conducted with the NIRCam and MIRI instruments onboard JWST. Located at a distance of 490 kpc, NGC 682…
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 MIRI flight performance: The Medium-Resolution Spectrometer
Ioannis Argyriou, Alistair Glasse, David R. Law +22
The Medium-Resolution Spectrometer (MRS) provides one of the four operating modes of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) on board the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The MRS is a…
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…
