The JWST Proto-PAH project: Aromatic backbones with extensive aliphatic substitution account for both the aromatic and aliphatic emission

N. Clark, E. Peeters, J. Cami +18

We find that the aromatic and aliphatic emission bands in four carbon-rich post-asymptotic giant branch stars with class D emission arise from a single carrier population: extensiv…

The JWST Proto-PAH project. Computational modeling of the emission carriers

A. Ricca, G. C. Sloan, E. Peeters +8

The infrared spectra of many carbon-rich post-asymptotic giant branch stars are dominated by emission features from aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, but the chemical structure…

The JWST Proto-PAH Project: Detection of the methyl radical CH in the highly evolved C-rich object SMP LMC 011

Jialu Li, D. A. García-Hernández, A. Manchado +17

We report the first detection of the neutral methyl radical CH in a highly evolved C-rich object, SMP LMC 011, using JWST MIRI/MRS. CH is well fitted by an excitation tempe…

A JWST Study of Stardust. I. Infrared Spectroscopy of Comet 81P/Wild 2 and Overall Composition

Nathan X. Roth, Stefanie N. Milam, Diane H. Wooden +11

We report observations of comet 81P/Wild 2, target of the Stardust sample return mission, on UT 2023 March 20 and 24 at a heliocentric distance () of 1.85 au using the NIRSpec…

Detection of CO ice in the planetary nebula NGC 6302

Charmi Bhatt, Simon W. Cao, Jan Cami +20

Using JWST/MIRI observations, we report the detection of CO ice in the dusty torus of the planetary nebula NGC 6302, an environment generally considered hostile to fragile mole…
