Brown dwarfs form the key, yet poorly understood, link between stellar and planetary astrophysics. These objects offer unique tests of Galactic structure, but observational limitations have inhibited their large-scale analysis to date. Major upcoming sky

We report direct observational evidence for a latitudinal dependence of dust cloud opacity in ultracool dwarfs, indicating that equatorial latitudes are cloudier than polar latitudes.

The Search for Brown Dwarfs around White Dwarfs [PDF]
The infrared search for substellar companions to nearby white dwarfs has been going on for a little more than a decade. The most recent phase has been a wide field proper motion search carried out primarily at Steward Observatory, where we are complete down to J = 18. Earlier phases included near field searches at the IRTF and Keck Observatory.

This study presents Hi‐LabSpermTracking, a long‐duration, expert‐annotated sperm motility dataset for detection and tracking. It evaluates You Only Look Once version 8, Real‐Time Detection Transformer, and Simple Online and Realtime Tracking with a Deep Association Metric in three scenarios. The mean ensemble method improves tracking performance. Sperm

The formation of brown dwarfs and low-mass stars by disc fragmentation
We suggest that a high proportion of brown dwarfs are formed by gravitational fragmentation of massive, extended discs around Sun-like stars. We argue that such discs should arise frequently, but should be observed infrequently, precisely because they ...

Low Luminosity Companions to White Dwarfs [PDF]
This paper presents results of a near-infrared imaging survey for low mass stellar and substellar companions to white dwarfs. A wide field proper motion survey of 261 white dwarfs was capable of directly detecting companions at orbital separations ...

A New Spectral Class of Brown Dwarfs at the Bottom of the IMF in IC 348
In a previous study, we used James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to identify three new brown dwarfs in the center of a nearby star-forming cluster, IC 348.

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 Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

Abstract The pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps) possesses an exocrine gland associated with its false gill slit pigmentation pattern. The cervical gill slit gland is a compound tubuloalveolar gland that produces a holocrine secretion and displays maturational changes in size and secretory histology. While the morphology of the cervical gill slit gland
