论文摘要

我们报告了使用G395H/F290LP磁带/滤清器组合($3-5μ$ M)获得的JWST委托观察,该观察是使用NIRSPEC仪器的Bright Object Time序列(BOTS)模式($3-5μ$ M)获得的。虽然数据主要用于验证NIRSPEC机器人模式是否按预期运行,并启用它以供一般的科学使用,但它们产生了精确的传输频谱,我们发现这些频谱毫无疑问地归功于仪器的精确水平,与HAT-P-14〜B的预期相一致,既符合HAT-P-14〜B的小规模高度高),并且是预期的大气氛围。 \ emph {jwst/nirspec}的出色质量和稳定性 - 几乎没有任何系统效应 - 使我们能够在此波长范围内以$ r = 100 $的单个限制和限制$ n的限制(或在$ r = theplype close)中获得50-60 ppm的中值不确定性,并且在$ r = 100 $中,这是$ n的(或)$ no =(或)$ no no no no no =) 9.094 $,像HAT-P-14一样的F型星。这些观察结果展示了NIRSPEC/机器人执行尖端的过境系外行星大气科学的能力,从而为在第1周期及以后做出的观察和发现奠定了基础。

We report on JWST commissioning observations of the transiting exoplanet HAT-P-14 b, obtained using the Bright Object Time Series (BOTS) mode of the NIRSpec instrument with the G395H/F290LP grating/filter combination ($3-5μ$m). While the data were used primarily to verify that the NIRSpec BOTS mode is working as expected, and to enable it for general scientific use, they yield a precise transmission spectrum which we find is featureless down to the precision level of the instrument, consistent with expectations given HAT-P-14~b's small scale-height and hence expected atmospheric features. The exquisite quality and stability of the \emph{JWST/NIRSpec} transit spectrum -- almost devoid of any systematic effects -- allowed us to obtain median uncertainties of 50-60 ppm in this wavelength range at a resolution of $R=100$ in a single exposure, which is in excellent agreement with pre-flight expectations and close to the (or at the) photon-noise limit for a $J = 9.094$, F-type star like HAT-P-14. These observations showcase the ability of NIRSpec/BOTS to perform cutting-edge transiting exoplanet atmospheric science, setting the stage for observations and discoveries to be made in Cycle 1 and beyond.
