Imaging the youngest planets with JWST
I am participating in several observational programs using the JWST to image forming planets still embedded in the circumstellar disks. As part of the NIRCam GTO program 1179, I published the first high-contrast images of a protoplanetary disk, SAO206462. We detected a companion candidate that could be responsible for launching at least one of the prominent spirals in the disk. In addition, I am the PI of GO2153, an attempt to image HD163296b with the MIRI instrument.
