The 2MASS Wide-Field T Dwarf Search. IV Unting out T dwarfs with Methane Imaging [PDF]
The Astronomical Journal, 2005 We present first results from a major program of methane filter photometry for low-mass stars and brown dwarfs. The definition of a new methane filter photometric system is described.

Space Velocities of L- and T-type Dwarfs [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2007 (Abridged) We have obtained radial velocities of a sample of 18 ultracool dwarfs (M6.5-T8) using high-resolution, near-infrared spectra obtained with NIRSPEC and the Keck II telescope.

Discovery of a T dwarf + white dwarf binary system [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2010 We present the discovery of the first T dwarf + white dwarf binary system LSPM 1459+0857AB, confirmed through common proper motion and spectroscopy. The white dwarf is a high proper motion object from the LSPM catalogue that we confirm spectroscopically to be a relatively cool (Teff=5535+\-45K) and magnetic (B~2MG) hydrogen-rich white dwarf, with an ...

Redder than Red: Discovery of an Exceptionally Red L/T Transition Dwarf
The 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 (

T Dwarf Photometric Variability [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2003 We report on a J and H photometric variability survey of 10 T dwarfs. Four brown dwarfs in the sample show significant J band variability at the 99% confidence level or higher. The amplitude of variation ranges from 2 to 17%. Our data show evidence of variability for late as well as early T dwarfs.

RESOLVED SPECTROSCOPY OF A BROWN DWARF BINARY AT THE T DWARF/Y DWARF TRANSITION [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2011 We report resolved near-infrared imaging and spectroscopic observations of the T8.5 binary WISEP J045853.90+643452.6AB obtained with Keck/NIRC2, Keck/OSIRIS and the Keck Laser Guide Star Adaptive Optics system. These data confirm common proper and radial motion for the two components, and we see the first indications of orbital motion (mostly radial ...
