Brown dwarfs forming in discs: Where to look for them?
A large fraction of the observed brown dwarfs may form by gravitational fragmentation of unstable discs. This model reproduces the brown dwarf desert, and provides an explanation for the existence of planetary-mass objects and for the binary properties ...

DEPLETION OF TiO AND SPECTRA OF THE COOLEST BROWN DWARFS
This study was performed in the context of the ”lithium test” for brown dwarfs proposed by Rebolo et al. (1992). We consider the formation of lithium dust species in atmospheres of the coolest stars and substellar objects.

Listening to Hong Kong children's perspectives through pretend play
Abstract Quality in early childhood education and care (ECEC) has become an increasing concern in recent years. The issue has been regularly discussed by different stakeholders. However, the rising concern regarding quality in ECEC has not seriously taken into account children's perspectives.

ExoGemS Detection of a Metal Hydride in an Exoplanet Atmosphere at High Spectral Resolution
Exoplanet atmosphere studies are often enriched by synergies with brown dwarf analogs. However, many key molecules commonly seen in brown dwarfs have yet to be confirmed in exoplanet atmospheres.

37 NEW T-TYPE BROWN DWARFS IN THE CANADA-FRANCE BROWN DWARFS SURVEY [PDF]
The Canada-France Brown Dwarfs Survey is an i'- and z'-band survey realized with MegaCam at the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope that covers a surface area of 780 deg2. Image analysis is now completed while J-band follow-up campaigns are ~90% done. The survey identified about 70 T dwarf candidates, of which 43 now have near-infrared spectra obtained with

Widening participation in outward student mobility: Successes, challenges and opportunities
Abstract This article utilises data obtained through evaluation processes at Northumbria University to contribute to the emerging discourse on widening participation and outward student mobility. The rationale behind the study stems from the significant financial and non‐financial benefits associated with higher education and the UK's ongoing efforts ...

Atmospheric circulation of exoplanets
To date, more than 5000 exoplanets and more than 2000 brown dwarfs have been confirmed, which shows rich diversities in many aspects. With the rapid growth of the planet family, both observational and theoretical research on exoplanet atmosphere is ...

Abstract Short‐lived, unobservable, and not subject to the usual rules of conservation of energy and momentum, virtual particles—an integral part of the conceptual framework of quantum field theory (QFT)—exhibit a number of curious characteristics which, in recent decades, have in part fueled important discussions about their ontological status ...

Mid-infrared followup of cold brown dwarfs: Diversity in age, mass and metallicity
We use Spitzer IRAC 3.6–8.0 μm photometry of late-type T dwarfs to investigate various trends which can aid the planning and interpretation of infrared (IR) surveys for the coldest T or Y dwarfs. Brown dwarfs with effective temperature (Teff)50% of their
