Four Nearby L Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2000
We present spectroscopic, photometric and astrometric observations of four bright L dwarfs identified in the course of the 2MASS near-infrared survey. Our spectroscopic data extend to wavelengths shortward of 5000 in the L0 dwarf 2MASSJ0746+2000 and the L4 dwarf 2MASSJ0036+1840, allowing the identification of absorption bands due to MgH and CaOH.

IZ Photometry of L dwarfs and the implications for brown dwarf surevys [PDF]

open access: greenMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2000
The I-Z colour has been recently shown to be a good temperature indicator for M dwarfs. We present the first IZ photometry of a small sample of L dwarfs ranging in spectral type from L0.5V to L6.0V. We find that the I-Z colour is not a good temperature indicator for objects between L1V and L5V, such objects having colours that overlap with mid M dwarfs.

L-dwarf Detection from SDSS Images using Improved Faster R-CNN

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present a data-driven approach to automatically detect L dwarfs from Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) images using an improved Faster R-CNN framework based on deep learning.

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 (

An Investigation of New Brown Dwarf Spectral Binary Candidates From the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 Citizen Science Initiative

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present three new brown dwarf spectral-binary candidates: CWISE J072708.09−360729.2, CWISE J103604.84−514424.4, and CWISE J134446.62−732053.9, discovered by citizen scientists through the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 project.

Astrometry and Photometry for ≈1000 L, T, and Y Dwarfs from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We present the positions, proper motions, and near-infrared photometry for 966 known objects with spectral types later than M that were observed as part of the the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey (UHS).

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.
