Prathap Rayalacheruvu, Liton Majumdar, W. R. M. Rocha +7
In the era of JWST, with its unprecedented sensitivity and spectral resolution, infrared spectral surveys have revealed a rich inventory of ices, including complex organic molecule…
JWST Observations of Young protoStars (JOYS): overview of program and early results
E. F. van Dishoeck, Å. Tychoniec, W. R. M. Rocha +34
The embedded phase is a crucial period in the development of a young star. Mid-IR observations, now possible with JWST with unprecedented sensitivity, spectral resolution and sharp…
Revealing a main-sequence star that consumed a planet with JWST
Ryan M. Lau, Jacob E. Jencson, Colette Salyk +8
The subluminous red nova (SLRN) ZTF SLRN-2020 is the most compelling direct detection of a planet being consumed by its host star, a scenario known as a planetary engulfment event.…
JWST/MIRI Study of the Enigmatic Mid-Infrared Rings in the Planetary Nebula NGC 1514
Michael E. Ressler, Alba Aller, David Jones +3
While NGC 1514 is an elliptical, but complex, planetary nebula at optical wavelengths, it was discovered to have a pair of infrared-bright, axisymmetric rings contained within its…
