JWST/MIRI Study of the Enigmatic Mid-infrared Rings in the Planetary Nebula NGC 1514
The Astronomical JournalWhile 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 faint outer shell during the course of the Wide-field Infrared Survey ...

Modeling Tails of Escaping Gas in Exoplanet Atmospheres with Harmonica
The Astrophysical Journal LettersExoplanets that reside close to their host stars, and therefore receive substantial amounts of X-ray and ultraviolet radiation, are prone to suffer from strong atmospheric escape.

Hot Rocks Survey. V. Secondary Eclipse Photometry of GJ 3473 b with JWST/MIRI
The Astronomical JournalJWST is transforming our ability to characterize small exoplanets, from sub-Neptunes to rocky worlds. A key open question is whether highly irradiated rocky planets can retain atmospheres or are stripped bare by stellar irradiation—a boundary that ...

James Webb Space Telescope: A Cryogenic Approach
International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering TechnologyJames Web Space Telescope (JWST) is a milestone to space exploration. JWST is concerned to observe the universe in infrared spectrum, provide unprecedented insight into the early universe, study formation of galaxies and birth of stars, give significant understanding of planetary system and discover signs of life on other planets.
