Characterization of JWST NIRCam PSFs and Implications for AGN+host Image Decomposition

We present a detailed analysis of the point-spread function (PSF) of JWST NIRCam imaging in eight filters: F070W, F115W, F150W, F200W, F277W, F356W, F444W, and F480M, using publicly available data. Spatial variations in the PSF FWHM generally decrease with wavelength: the maximum and rms fractional...
