What does self-supervision add to engineered features for stellar light curves?

Zijun Liu, Yue Ma, Christopher A. Theissen

TESS light curves encode a star's pulsation, rotation, binarity and oscillations, among other physical properties, but the survey produces far more light curves than can be labelle…

JWST Observations of the Metal-poor T Dwarf WISEA J155349.96+693355.2: The First Brown Dwarf Associated with the Gaia-Enceladus Milky Way Substructure

Aaron M. Meisner, Adam J. Burgasser, Chih-Chun Hsu +15

We present JWST NIRSpec and MIRI observations of the metal-poor T dwarf WISEA J155349.96+693355.2. The combined NIRSpec/prism plus MIRI/LRS spectrum (R ~ 100) provides 0.6-12 m…

Metal-poor Brown Dwarf Kinematics from JWST NIRSpec Spectroscopy

Chih-Chun Hsu, Christopher A. Theissen, Adam J. Burgasser +14

Galactic archaeology relies on stellar kinematics and chemical abundances to identify various stellar populations and associations. With JWST, Galactic archaeology of ancient metal…

The Dyn-Atmo Survey: JWST/NIRSpec spectroscopy of dynamical benchmark GJ 758 B

Alexander Madurowicz, Emily Rickman, Daniella Bardalez Gagliuffi +22

We present new JWST/NIRSpec IFU high contrast spectroscopic observations of the brown dwarf companion GJ 758 B. Extensive radial velocity monitoring of the primary has enabled high…

The Dyn-Atmo Survey: High-contrast Imaging Spectroscopy of the Substellar Companion HD 13724 B with the JWST NIRSpec IFU

Kielan K. W. Hoch, Alex Madurowicz, Evert Nasedkin +22

We present the first spectral analysis from the JWST Cycle 3 GO Program #6362, the Dyn-Atmo Survey of dynamical-atmospheric benchmarks, characterizing the atmospheres of directly-i…

EncoTESS: Age-Sensitive Encodings from Raw TESS Light Curves

Phil R. Van-Lane, Joshua S. Speagle, Ryan Cloutier +3

Main sequence stars of spectral types late F through M exhibit systematic variability in photometric light curves, particularly when they are young. Rotational modulation of starsp…

A High-Resolution Spectroscopic Survey of Directly Imaged Companion Hosts: III. Characterization of the Cold Imaged Planet Hosts AF Lep A and Indi A

Aneesh Baburaj, Quinn M. Konopacky, Christopher A. Theissen +3

JWST has enabled the measurement of carbon, oxygen, and sulfur abundances in the atmospheres of directly imaged planets. Interpretation of these abundances from a planet formation…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems VIII: patchy forsterite and enstatite clouds in the atmosphere of VHS 1256 b, retrieval lessons learned and outlook to the future

Niall Whiteford, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +123

JWST defines a new era for the data-driven approach of retrieval modelling, which has become a cornerstone tool for the statistical inference of exoplanetary and brown dwarf proper…

Stellar Multiplicity of M Dwarfs with Short-period Giant Planets, and the Characterization of TOI-5628Ab

Tianjun Gan, Alexandrine L'Heureux, Charles Cadieux +33

Binary stars are ubiquitous, yet it remains unclear how wide-orbit stellar companions influence the formation of hot Jupiters, particularly around M dwarfs. Here, we first report t…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems. VII. Molecular Mapping Performance with JWST/MIRI MRS: VHS 1256 b as a case study

Mathilde Mâlin, Anthony Boccaletti, Benjamin Charnay +29

VHS 1256 b was the first planetary-mass companion to be observed with the James Webb Space Telescope's Mid-Infrared Instrument (JWST/MIRI) using the Medium-Resolution Spectrometer…
