The JWST Early-release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems II: a 1 to 20 μm spectrum of the planetary-mass companion VHS 1256 …

BE Miles, BA Biller, P Patapis, K Worthen… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the highest fidelity spectrum to date of a planetary-mass object. VHS 1256 b is
a< 20 M Jup widely separated (∼ 8'', a= 150 au), young, planetary-mass companion that …

Aerosols in exoplanet atmospheres

P Gao, HR Wakeford, SE Moran, V Parmentier - 2021 - Wiley Online Library
Observations of exoplanet atmospheres have shown that aerosols, like in the solar system,
are common across a variety of temperatures and planet types. The formation and …

Detection and bulk properties of the HR 8799 planets with high-resolution spectroscopy

JJ Wang, JB Ruffio, E Morris, JR Delorme… - The Astronomical …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Using the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer, we obtained high-resolution (R∼
35,000) K-band spectra of the four planets orbiting HR 8799. We clearly detected H 2 O and …

Let the great world spin: revealing the stormy, turbulent nature of young giant exoplanet analogs with the Spitzer Space Telescope

JM Vos, JK Faherty, J Gagné, M Marley… - The Astrophysical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We present a survey for photometric variability in young, low-mass brown dwarfs with the
Spitzer Space Telescope. The 23 objects in our sample show robust signatures of youth and …

A clear view of a cloudy brown dwarf companion from high-resolution spectroscopy

JW Xuan, J Wang, JB Ruffio, H Knutson… - The Astrophysical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Direct imaging studies have mainly used low-resolution spectroscopy (R∼ 20–100) to study
the atmospheres of giant exoplanets and brown dwarf companions, but the presence of …

Highlights of exoplanetary science from Spitzer

D Deming, HA Knutson - Nature Astronomy, 2020 - nature.com
Observations of extrasolar planets were not projected to be a substantial part of the Spitzer
Space Telescope's mission when it was conceived and designed. Nevertheless, Spitzer was …

Two directly imaged, wide-orbit giant planets around the young, solar analog TYC 8998-760-1

AJ Bohn, MA Kenworthy, C Ginski… - The Astrophysical …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
Even though tens of directly imaged companions have been discovered in the past decades,
the number of directly confirmed multiplanet systems is still small. Dynamical analysis of …

Y Zhou, BP Bowler, D Apai, T Kataria… - The Astronomical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
The photometric and spectral variability of brown dwarfs probes heterogeneous temperature
and cloud distributions and traces the atmospheric circulation patterns. We present a new 42 …

Patchy Forsterite Clouds in the Atmospheres of Two Highly Variable Exoplanet Analogs

JM Vos, B Burningham, JK Faherty… - The Astrophysical …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an atmospheric retrieval analysis of a pair of highly variable,∼ 200 Myr old,
early T type planetary-mass exoplanet analogs SIMP J01365662+ 0933473 and 2MASS …
