Gravitational fragmentation and the formation of brown dwarfs in stellar clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2008
We investigate the formation of brown dwarfs and very low-mass stars through the gravitational fragmentation of infalling gas into stellar clusters. The gravitational potential of a forming stellar cluster provides the focus that attracts gas from the ...

The Formation Mechanism of Brown Dwarfs

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2002
We present results from the first hydrodynamical star formation calculation to demonstrate that brown dwarfs are a natural and frequent product of the collapse and fragmentation of a turbulent molecular cloud.

The brown dwarf desert as a consequence of orbital migration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
We show that the dearth of brown dwarfs in short-period orbits around Solar-mass stars - the brown dwarf desert - can be understood as a consequence of inward migration within an evolving protoplanetary disc.

Exploration of the brown dwarf regime around solar-like stars by CoRoT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aims. A summary of the CoRoT brown dwarf investigations are presented. Methods. Transiting brown dwarfs around solar like stars were studied by using the photometric time-series of CoRoT, and ground based radial velocity measurements. Results.

Possible nuclear fusion of deuteron in the cores of Earth, Jupiter, Saturn, and brown dwarfs

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
Many brown dwarfs have recently been discovered as sub-stellar objects in which deuteron thermonuclear fusion is taking place. Although Jupiter and Saturn emit nearly twice as much heat as they absorb from the Sun, their internal heat-generation ...

Brown dwarf populations in open clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We present the results of multiple simulations of open clusters, modelling the dynamics of a population of brown dwarf members. We consider the effects of a large range of primordial binary populations, including the possibilities of having brown dwarf ...

Extending the Canada-France Brown Dwarf Survey to the near infrared

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2011
We present the first results of the Canada-France Brown Dwarfs Survey-InfraRed, hereafter CFBDSIR, our near infrared extension to the optical wide field survey CFBDS.

PICASO 3.0: A One-dimensional Climate Model for Giant Planets and Brown Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Upcoming James Webb Space Telescope observations will allow us to study exoplanet and brown dwarf atmospheres in great detail. The physical interpretation of these upcoming high signal-to-noise observations requires precise atmospheric models of ...
