GJ 3929 b's full four-eclipse JWST/MIRI data set yields an eclipse depth of 118±22 ppm, consistent with a bare rocky surface and ruling out thick CO2 atmospheres at >3σ.
Accounting for stellar and orbital uncertainties shows that predicted eclipse depths for bare-rock models of rocky exoplanets carry substantial uncertainty comparable to measurements, establishing a fundamental precision limit for atmospheric and compositional inferences.
Reference differential imaging of archival MIRI F1500W TSO data reaches 5σ contrasts of ~10^{-3} at 1" and ~2×10^{-4} beyond 3", enabling sensitivity to ~4–10 MJup planets at tens of AU around old M-dwarfs.
