Spectral Trends across the Rings and Inner Moons of Uranus and Neptune from JWST NIRCam Images

JWST NIRCam images provide low-resolution spectra of the rings and inner moons orbiting Uranus and Neptune. These data reveal systematic variations in spectral parameters like the strength of the strong OH absorption band around 3 μ m and the spectral slopes at continuum wavelengths. Neptune’s rings...
