Red Optical Planet Survey : A radial velocity search for low mass M dwarf planets
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
We present radial velocity results from our Red Optical Planet Survey (ROPS), aimed at detecting low-mass planets orbiting mid-late M dwarfs. The similar to 10 ms(-1) precision achieved over 2 consecutive nights with the ...
Periodic variability of spotted M dwarfs in WTS
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
We present an analysis of the photometric variability of M dwarfs in the WFCAM Transit Survey, selected from spectral types inferred by their WTS and SDSS colours, with periods detected using a Lomb-Scargle Periodogram ...
Measuring ultracool properties from the UKIDSS Large Area Survey
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
We discuss the properties and of ultracool and brown dwarfs that can be measured from current large area surveys and how fundamental parameters, such as the mass function and formation history can be measured, describing ...
Purple dwarfs : New L subdwarfs from UKIDSS and SDSS
(EDP Sciences, 2013)
The first L subdwarf was a discovered only ten years ago. Less than ten L subdwarfs been published in the literature to date. Metal-poor ultracool atmospheres has not been well understood. Halo mass function cross substellar ...
