In this report, we present the results of our analysis of trace position changes during NIRISS/SOSS observations. We examine the visit-to-visit impact of the GR700XD pupil wheel (PW) position alignment on trace positions for spectral orders 1 and 2 using the data obtained to date. Our goal is to improve the wavelength solution by correlating the trace positions on the detector with the PW position angle. We find that there is a one-to-one correspondence between PW position and spectral trace rotation for both orders. This allowed us in turn to find an analytic model that is able to predict a trace position/shape as a function of PW position with sub-pixel accuracy of about ~0.1 pixels. Such a function can be used to predict the trace position in low signal-to-noise ratio cases, and/or as a template to track trace position changes as function of time in Time Series Observations (TSOs).

  1. Mitigating Charge Migration in JWST NIRISS Reveals That KELT-7 b is a Metal-enriched Ultra-hot Jupiter Orbiting a Young Metal-rich Star

    astro-ph.EP 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Correcting NIRISS charge migration reveals KELT-7 b as a metal-enriched (~92x solar) ultra-hot Jupiter with H2O, CO2 and TiO but no H- or clouds, orbiting a young metal-rich star.

  2. A Comprehensive Reanalysis of K2-18 b's JWST NIRISS+NIRSpec Transmission Spectrum

    astro-ph.EP 2025-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A multi-method reanalysis of K2-18 b's JWST spectrum confirms methane but finds no robust carbon dioxide or dimethyl sulfide, favoring an oxygen-poor mini-Neptune over a hycean ocean world.

  3. TOI-421 b: A Hot Sub-Neptune with a Haze-Free, Low Mean Molecular Weight Atmosphere

    astro-ph.EP 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    TOI-421 b, a 920 K sub-Neptune around a Sun-like star, has a clear, hydrogen-dominated, near-solar-metallicity atmosphere with detected water, based on JWST transmission spectroscopy.

  4. Detection of H2O and CO2 in the Atmosphere of the Hot Super-Neptune WASP-166b with JWST

    astro-ph.EP 2024-12 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Transmission spectra from JWST NIRISS and NIRSpec detect H2O and CO2 in the atmosphere of WASP-166b, with tentative ammonia and a metal-rich, low C/O composition.
