JWST observations indicate that interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS has dust dominated by amorphous silicates similar to the ISM, unlike the crystalline silicate-rich dust in Solar System comets.

JWST observations of Sz 65 and Sz 66 reveal higher cold-to-hot water ratios in the secondary disk, attributed to its unstructured dust disk enabling efficient pebble drift across the snow line.
CO2 binding energies on water ice follow a bimodal Gaussian distribution that significantly extends the gaseous CO2 fraction in protoplanetary disks.
Updated DALI models reproduce observed C2H2 fluxes with solar C/O and find the C2H2/H2O flux ratio sensitive to elemental abundances and small-grain abundance in planet-forming disk regions.

Fizzy water ice in space: CO$_2$ adsorption, binding energies and its fate in a protoplanetary disk
CO2 binding energies on water ice follow a bimodal Gaussian distribution that significantly extends the gaseous CO2 fraction in protoplanetary disks.
