Simulating Solar Neighborhood Brown Dwarfs. I. The Luminosity Function above and below the Galactic Plane

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
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

Ultracool Dwarfs Observed with the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph: Equatorial Latitudes in L Dwarf Atmospheres Are Cloudier

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
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]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 2003
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.

Hi‐LabSpermTracking: A Novel and High‐Quality Sperm Tracking Dataset with an Advanced Ensemble Detection and Tracking Approach for Real‐World Clinical Scenarios

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
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

open access: yes, 2008
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]

open access: yes, 2005
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

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
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

open access: yes地球与行星物理论评, 2023
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 ...

Management of Cardiovascular Health Issues in Turner Syndrome: Expert Insights and Expanded Recommendations From the 2024 Guideline Development Team

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
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

Histochemical indications for a chemically complex signal produced by the cervical gill slit gland of the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
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
