Ultracool Dwarfs with Spitzer IR Spectrograph. I.
We present Spitzer IRS 5-14{mu}m spectra and 16{mu}m and 22{mu}m photometry of the T2.5 companion to the ~300Myr old G0V star HN Peg. We incorporate previous 0.8-5{mu}m... -
HST/WFC3 spectroscopy of WISEP J182831.08+265037.8
We present a Hubble Space Telescope/Wide-Field Camera 3 near-infrared spectrum of the archetype Y-dwarf WISEPJ182831.08+265037.8. The spectrum covers the 0.9-1.7{mu}m wavelength... -
Infrared photometry of late-type brown dwarfs
Cold, low-mass, field brown dwarfs are important for constraining the terminus of the stellar mass function, and also for optimizing atmospheric studies of exoplanets. In 2020... -
Ultracool SpeXtroscopic survey. I. M7-L5 sample
We present a volume-limited, spectroscopically verified sample of M7-L5 ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) within 25pc. The sample contains 410 sources, of which 93% have trigonometric... -
Spitzer follow up of 95 brown dwarfs
We present Spitzer follow-up imaging of 95 candidate extremely cold brown dwarfs discovered by the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project, which uses visually... -
NIR spectra of 2 extreme T-type subdwarfs
We present the discoveries of WISEAJ041451.67-585456.7 and WISEAJ181006.18-101000.5, two low-temperature (1200-1400K), high proper motion T-type subdwarfs. Both objects were... -
Spitzer follow-up of Y brown dwarfs
We present Spitzer 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m follow-up of 170 candidate extremely cool brown dwarfs newly discovered via the combination of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) and... -
Very low-mass binaries with Gaia DR2 data
We report the discovery of WISE 2150-7520AB (W2150AB): a widely separated (~341au) very low-mass L1+T8 co-moving system. The system consists of the previously known L1 primary... -
A large moving group within the LCC association
Scorpius-Centaurus is the nearest OB association, and its hundreds of members are divided into subgroups, including the Lower Centaurus Crux (LCC). Here we study the dynamics of... -
Spitzer observations of Y and T dwarfs
Y dwarfs provide a unique opportunity to study free-floating objects with masses <30M_Jup_ and atmospheric temperatures approaching those of known Jupiter-like exoplanets.... -
K2 ultracool dwarfs survey. III. M6-L0 flares
We report the white light flare rates for 10 ultracool dwarfs using Kepler K2 short-cadence data. Among our sample stars, two have spectral type M6, three are M7, three are M8,... -
PS1 proper-motion survey for brown dwarfs. I. Taurus
We are conducting a proper-motion survey for young brown dwarfs in the Taurus-Auriga molecular cloud based on the Pan-STARRS1 3{pi} Survey. Our search uses multi-band photometry... -
Brown dwarfs with spectral type later than T6
The survey of the mid-infrared sky by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) led to the discovery of extremely cold, low-mass brown dwarfs, classified as Y dwarfs, which... -
Herschel spectra of 11 very low mass stars
The properties of disks around brown dwarfs and very low mass stars (hereafter VLMOs) provide important boundary conditions on the process of planet formation and inform us... -
Brown dwarf surface gravities with Keck/NIRSPEC
We combine 131 new medium-resolution (R~2000) J-band spectra of M, L, and T dwarfs from the Keck NIRSPEC Brown Dwarf Spectroscopic Survey (BDSS) with 97 previously published... -
Hawaii infrared parallax program. II. Ultracool dwarfs
We present a large, uniform analysis of young (~10-150Myr) ultracool dwarfs, based on new high-precision infrared (IR) parallaxes for 68 objects. We find that low-gravity (VL-G)... -
TOI-1994 radial velocities with MINERVA & CHIRON
We present the discovery of TOI-1994b, a low-mass brown dwarf transiting a hot subgiant star on a moderately eccentric orbit. TOI-1994 has an effective temperature of... -
Ha emission from FU Tau B brown dwarf companion
Monitoring mass accretion onto substellar objects provides insights into the geometry of the accretion flows. We use the Lulin One-meter Telescope to monitor H{alpha} emission... -
UKIRT Hemisphere Survey L, T & Y dwarfs catalog
We present the positions, proper motions, and near-infrared photometry for 966 known objects with spectral types later than M that were observed as part of the UKIRT Hemisphere... -
CHARIS and SPHERE/IFS infrared spectra of HIP 21152
Benchmark brown dwarf companions with well-determined ages and model- independent masses are powerful tools to test substellar evolutionary models and probe the formation of...
