Low-mass cool dwarfs of NYMGs from Gaia EDR3
Gaia EDR3 offers greatly improved kinematics for nearby objects, including members of nearby young stellar moving groups (NYMGs). In this study, we aim to identify low-mass NYMG... -
Study of UCD's flares from SSO survey
We present a study of photometric flares on 154 low-mass (<=0.2 M_{sun}_) objects observed by the SPECULOOS-South Observatory from 2018 June 1 to 2020 March 23. In this... -
NIR spectrum of the red L/T VHS J183135.58-551355.9
We present the discovery of VHS J183135.58-551355.9, an L/T transition dwarf identified as a result of its unusually red near-infrared colors (J-K_S_=3.633+/-0.277mag;... -
A full-sky census of brown dwarfs within 20pc
We present final Spitzer trigonometric parallaxes for 361 L, T, and Y dwarfs. We combine these with prior studies to build a list of 525 known L, T, and Y dwarfs within 20pc of... -
Beyond the local volume. I. HST ultracool dwarfs
Ultracool dwarf stars and brown dwarfs provide a unique probe of large-scale Galactic structure and evolution; however, until recently spectroscopic samples of sufficient size,... -
Discovery of an L dwarf co-moving BD+60 1417
Through the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project we discovered a late-type L dwarf co-moving with the young K0 star BD+60 1417 at a projected separation of 37" or... -
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,... -
NIRSpec spectra of TWA 28, TWA 27A and TWA 27B
Spectra of young benchmark brown dwarfs with well-known ages are vital to characterize other brown dwarfs, for which ages are in general not known. These spectra are also... -
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 the UKIRT... -
Volume-limited sample of cool dwarfs. I. L0-T8 dwarfs
We present a new volume-limited sample of L0-T8 dwarfs out to 25pc defined entirely by parallaxes, using our recent measurements from UKIRT/WFCAM along with Gaia DR2 and... -
827 ultracool dwarfs with K2
The occurrence of planets orbiting ultracool dwarfs is poorly constrained. We present results from a guest observer program on NASA's K2 spacecraft to search for transiting... -
MLSDSS-GaiaDR2 sample of M and L dwarfs
We present a sample of 74216 M and L dwarfs constructed from two existing catalogs of cool dwarfs spectroscopically identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We... -
Analysis of the NIR spectra of neighboring L dwarfs
Discrepancies between competing optical and near-infrared (NIR) spectral typing systems for L dwarfs have motivated us to search for a classification scheme that ties the... -
NIR spectroscopy of new L and T dwarf candidates
We present the final results from a targeted search for brown dwarfs with unusual near-infrared colors. From a positional cross-match of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS),... -
L/T transition BDs from NIR SpeX spectra
We present a technique to identify spectrophotometrically variable L7-T3 brown dwarfs with single-epoch, low-resolution, near-infrared SpeX spectra. We calculated spectral... -
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...
