Brown dwarf census with the Dark Energy Survey year 3 data and the thin disc scale height of early L types
(2019-09-05)
In this paper we present a catalogue of 11 745 brown dwarfs with spectral types ranging from L0 to T9, photometrically classified using data from the Dark Energy Survey (DES) year 3 release matched to the Vista Hemisphere ...
Primeval very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs - III. The halo transitional brown dwarfs
(2018-09-01)
We report the discovery of an esdL3 subdwarf, ULAS J020858.62+020657.0 and a usdL4.5 subdwarf, ULAS J230711.01+014447.1. They were identified as L subdwarfs by optical spectra obtained with the Gran Telescopio Canarias, ...
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 ...
49 new T dwarfs identified using methane imaging
(2015-07-01)
We present the discovery of 49 new photometrically classified T dwarfs from the combination of large infrared and optical surveys combined with follow-up TNG photometry. We used multi-band infrared and optical photometry ...
A large spectroscopic sample of L and T dwarfs from UKIDSS LAS : peculiar objects, binaries, and space density
(2015-06-01)
We present the spectroscopic analysis of a large sample of late-M, L, and T dwarfs from UKIDSS. Using the YJHK photometry from ULAS and the red-optical photometry from SDSS we selected a sample of 262 brown dwarf candidates ...
The Properties of the 500 K Dwarf UGPS J072227.51-054031.2, and a Study of the Far-Red Flux of Cold Brown Dwarfs
(2012-04-01)
We present i and z photometry for 25 T dwarfs and one L dwarf. Combined with published photometry, the data show that the i - z, z - Y and z - J colors of T dwarfs are very red, and continue to increase through to the ...
Discovery of the benchmark metal poor T8 dwarf BD+01 2920B
(2012)
We have searched the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer first data release for widely separated (<=10,000AU) late T dwarf companions to Hipparcos and Gliese stars. We have discovered a new binary system containing a K-band ...
