A benchmark JWST near-infrared spectrum for the exoplanet WASP-39 b
Journal article, 2024

A combined analysis of datasets across four JWST instrument modes provides a benchmark transmission spectrum for the Saturn-mass WASP-39 b. The broad wavelength range and high resolution constrain orbital and stellar parameters to below 1%.
