Primeval very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs - VI. Population properties of metal-poor degenerate brown dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
© 2019 The Author(s). Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society.We presented 15 new T dwarfs that were selected from UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey, Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy, and Wide ...

Irradiated brown dwarfs

open access: yes, 2013
We have observed the post common envelope binary WD0137-349 in the near infrared $J$, $H$ and $K$ bands and have determined that the photometry varies on the system period (116 min).

Brown dwarf accretion: Nonconventional star formation over very long timescales [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2005
We investigate the process of accretion of interstellar gas by the Galactic population of brown dwarfs over very long timescales typical for physical eschatology.

Disks around Young Planetary-mass Objects: Ultradeep Spitzer Imaging of NGC 1333

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We report on a sensitive infrared search for disks around isolated young planetary-mass objects (PMOs) in the NGC 1333 cluster, by stacking 70 Spitzer/IRAC frames at 3.6 and 4.5 μ m.

Redder than Red: Discovery of an Exceptionally Red L/T Transition Dwarf

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We present the discovery of CWISE J050626.96+073842.4 (CWISE J0506+0738), an L/T transition dwarf with extremely red near-infrared colors discovered through the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project. Photometry from UKIRT and CatWISE give a (

The ultracool-field dwarf luminosity-function and space density from the Canada-France Brown Dwarf Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Context. Thanks to recent and ongoing large scale surveys, hundreds of brown dwarfs have been discovered in the last decade. The Canada-France Brown Dwarf Survey is a wide-field survey for cool brown dwarfs conducted with the MegaCam camera on the Canada-

The First Y Dwarf Data from JWST Show that Dynamic and Diabatic Processes Regulate Cold Brown Dwarf Atmospheres

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is now observing Y dwarfs, the coldest known brown dwarfs, with effective temperatures T _eff ≲ 475 K. The first published observations provide important information: not only is the atmospheric chemistry out of ...

Outflows and disks of brown dwarfs with SMA, CARMA and ALMA

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2013
Brown dwarfs are on the dividing line between planets and stars. Up to date, about 1,000 brown dwarfs, including the coolest known brown dwarfs with temperatures of ∼300 K as cool as the human body, have been discovered.

The Formation of Brown Dwarfs as Ejected Stellar Embryos [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We conjecture that brown dwarfs are substellar objects because they have been ejected from small newborn multiple systems which have decayed in dynamical interactions.
