Steady Collapse of Uranus' Exosphere After 1998 to the Present Decade
Abstract Uranus' thermospheric temperature decreased from ∼800K in 1986 to ∼450K in 2022 as determined from observations of H3+ and H2 infrared emissions. Spitzer 2007 lower atmosphere observations do not emulate this cooling trend. Here we show that the atomic H Lyman ⍺ emission from the disk of Uranus observed by HST from 2011 to 2022 are not ...

Faint White Dwarf Flux Standards: Data and Models
Fainter standard stars are essential for the calibration of larger telescopes. This work adds to the calibration spectra (CALSPEC) database of 19 faint white dwarfs (WDs) with all-sky coverage and V magnitudes between 16.5 and 18.7.

Finding high-redshift dark stars with the James Webb Space Telescope
The first stars in the history of the Universe are likely to form in the dense central regions of 10^5-10^6 Msolar cold dark matter halos at z=10-50. The annihilation of dark matter particles in these environments may lead to the formation of so-called ...

Short‐Term Variability of Jupiter's Satellite Footprints as Spotted by JWST
Abstract We present the main Alfvén wing (MAW) spots of Io and Europa as observed by the Near‐Infrared Spectrograph onboard the James Webb Space Telescope. These auroral footprint features have been measured previously, but only in emission. Here, the derived ionospheric H3+ ${\mathrm{H}}_{3}^{+}$ emission, temperature and column density are reported ...

Science with the James Webb space telescope [PDF]
The science objectives of the James Webb Space Telescope fall into four themes. The End of the Dark Ages: First Light and Reionization theme seeks to identify the first luminous sources to form and to determine the ionization history of the universe. The Assembly of Galaxies theme seeks to determine how galaxies and the dark matter, gas, stars, metals,
