SUMMARY:James Webb Space Telescope JWEBBINAR #53: The Optical Constants Data Base And JWST
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) webinar (JWebbinar) dedicated to the Optical Constants database (OCdb) and its use in PICASO and VIRGA models to analyze and interpret JWST observations of brown dwarfs and exoplanets. This JWebbinar will be presented by Ella Sciamma-O’Brien\, Lora Jovanovic\, Sarah Moran\, and James Mang. \nThe JWebbinar is scheduled for Wednesday November 4\, 8-10 a.m. (PST) and is organized by the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI). \nRegister by October 29 at: https://tinyurl.com/v497rx25 \nThe Optical Constants database (https://ocdb.smce.nasa.gov)\, developed at NASA Ames\, centralizes published optical constants of materials relevant to (exo)planetary and astrophysical environments\, making them more accessible to the community. \nThis JWebbinar will provide: \n1) a demo of the OCdb website: how to search the database content\, utilize its online tools for simple analyses\, and download data; \n2) how to use OCdb data in the PICASO (https://lnkd.in/grvYG4Gc) and VIRGA (https://lnkd.in/geWHaCnn) models to analyze and interpret JWST observations of brown dwarfs and exoplanets. \nIn this hand-on session\, there will be time for participants to ask questions\, discuss OCdb and exoplanet/brown dwarf-related topics\, and provide input on next steps for OCdb.
