Serendipitous discovery of a dusty disc around WDJ181417.84-735459.83
(2020-12-12)
Spectroscopic observations of white dwarfs reveal that many of them are polluted by exoplanetary material, whose bulk composition can be uniquely probed this way. We present a spectroscopic and photometric analysis of the ...
Ultracool dwarf benchmarks with \emph{Gaia} primaries
(2017-10-01)
We explore the potential of \emph{Gaia} for the field of benchmark ultracool/brown dwarf companions, and present the results of an initial search for metal-rich/metal-poor systems. A simulated population of resolved ultracool ...
The Gaia Ultracool Dwarf Sample. I. Known L and T dwarfs and the first Gaia data release
(2017-07-01)
We identify and investigate known ultracool stars and brown dwarfs that are being observed or indirectly constrained by the Gaia mission. These objects will be the core of the Gaia ultracool dwarf sample composed of all ...
Low-resolution near-infrared spectroscopic signatures of unresolved ultracool companions to M dwarfs
(2017-06-01)
We develop a method to identify the spectroscopic signature of unresolved L-dwarf ultracool companions, which compares the spectra of candidates and their associated control stars using spectral ratio differences and ...
