The Webb telescope detects a clear, hydrogen-rich atmosphere, as well as water vapor, on the hot sub-Neptune planet TOI-421 B ...

Observations with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have provided new clues about how the exoplanet WASP-121b has formed ...

The copper-based MOF thin film detects ethanol vapor with a smartphone camera, combining advanced materials with ...

James Webb Space Telescope detects frozen water in a distant young star system, revealing a Kuiper Belt–like icy debris disk.

A system that integrates all these techniques within a unified platform offers highly valuable versatility, enabling comprehensive sample analysis with increased confidence. Table 1. Vibrational ...

Is frozen water scattered in systems around other stars? Astronomers have long expected it is, partially based on previous detections of its gaseous form, water vapor, and its presence in our own ...

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) utilizes mid-infrared spectroscopy to precisely analyze molecular components such as water vapor and sulfur dioxide in exoplanet atmospheres. The key to ...

Researchers have developed an innovative photodetector capable of detecting a broad range of mid-infrared spectra. NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) utilizes mid-infrared spectroscopy to ...

Spaulding-Astudillo and Mitchell [2025] present a new and compelling idea that ties congestus prevalence to the spectroscopy ... understanding of water vapor’s appetite for infrared radiation.

It absorbs thermal infrared energy with wavelengths in a part of the energy spectrum that other gases, such as water vapor, do not. Although water vapor is a powerful absorber of many wavelengths of ...

The Hubble Space Telescope captured a sign of water vapor in the atmosphere of a distant ... “JWST can see much more with additional infrared observations, including carbon-bearing molecules ...

Astronomers have found water vapor around a young star within the constellation Taurus, 450 light-years away from Earth. “I had never imagined that we could capture an image of oceans of water ...
