In this demonstration we present the Brown Dwarf, a distributed system designed to efficiently store, query and update multidimensional data. Deployed on any number of commodity nodes, our system manages to distribute large volumes of data over network peers on-the-fly and process queries and updates on-line through cooperating nodes that hold parts of

In Alexander Hellemans's article “Binaries answer riddle of brown dwarf origins” (News of the Week, 13 Nov. p. [1240][1]), I am quoted as saying that the G 196-3 binary system consisting of an M-type star and a brown dwarf is “too young…for the dwarf to have formed from an accretion disk, like a planet” and that, “[b]ecause the brown dwarf is so far ...

Because of their very red colours and intrinsic faintness, field brown dwarfs will represent a small but valuable subset of the GAIA catalogue. The return of the astrometric satellite is expected to be important because of the inherent difficulty of obtaining good parallaxes in general and for this class of objects in particular.

Some popular star formation theories envision binary formation as the end product of cloud core fragmentation followed by dynamical evolution within small-N stellar groups. To explore these scenarios, we simulate the dynamical decay of small-N stellar groups by direct orbit integrations and analyze the multiplicity and contents of the stable decay ...

The Sun and Jupiter are similar in several respects. Both are self-gravitating 'gas spheres' that are composed primarily of hydrogen. However, the mass of Jupiter is only about 1/1000 that of the Sun. Now let us suppose that Jupiter's mass was actually ten times larger and the Sun's mass was decreased by a factor of ten. Would we still refer to Jupiter

As the author of "Brown Dwarfs: The Boundary Between Planets and Stars," I present this meticulously researched and authoritative 17-page document, a significant contribution to the field of astronomy. This work offers a comprehensive analysis of brown dwarfs, celestial objects with masses ranging from 13 to 80 times that of Jupiter and surface ...

We know a lot about stars and planets. We know about stars because they are easy to detect and because we can observe them in the various stages of their life cycles. We know about planets because we live on a planet, because there are nearby planets that can be visited by spacecraft and observed in detail, and because the known planets and other ...
