A Brown Dwarf Census from the SIMP Survey
We have conducted a near-infrared (NIR) proper motion survey, the Sondage Infrarouge de Mouvement Propre, in order to discover field ultracool dwarfs (UCD) in the solar neighborhood. The survey was conducted by imaging $\sim28\%$ of the sky with the Cam\'

Discovery of Four High Proper Motion L Dwarfs, Including a 10 pc L Dwarf at the L/T Transition [PDF]
We discover four high proper motion L dwarfs by comparing the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) to the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS). WISE J140533.32+835030.5 is an L dwarf at the L/T transition with a proper motion of 0.85+/-0.02" yr^-1 ...

Searching for T dwarfs in IC 2391 using methane imaging
We have performed a 970 arcmin 2 (1.75 pc 2 ) survey of the young cluster IC 2391 using the High Acuity Wide field K -band Imager on the Very Large Telescope.

Parallaxes and physical properties of 11 mid-to-late T dwarfs [PDF]
Aims. We present parallaxes of 11 mid-to-late T dwarfs observed in the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey. We use these results to test the reliability of model predictions in magnitude‐color space, determine a magnitude-spectral type calibration, and ...

Proton Acceleration with Relativistic Electromagnetic Shock
New Ion Acceleration Mechanism! A novel cosmic‐ray proton acceleration mechanism is proposed, where relativistic electromagnetic shocks accelerate protons transversely. Hamiltonian analysis yields a scaling law linking the proton energy to the minimum longitudinal thickness of the shock.

The Brown Dwarf Kinematics Project I. Proper motions and tangential velocities for a large sample of late-type M, L, and T dwarfs [PDF]
We report proper-motion measurements for 427 late-type M, L, and T dwarfs, 332 of which have been measured for the first time. Combining these new proper motions with previously published measurements yields a sample of 841 M7-T8 dwarfs.

The bacterial Type VI secretion system (T6SS) emerges as a sophisticated virulence mechanism, leveraging the dual‐function effector TkeA from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis. TkeA concurrently damages rival bacteria and host cell DNA, triggering the host's cGAS‐STING‐TNF pathway and inducing apoptosis.

Brown Dwarf Candidates in the JADES and CEERS Extragalactic Surveys
By combining the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST)/NIRCam JADES and CEERS extragalactic data sets, we have uncovered a sample of 21 T and Y brown dwarf candidates at best-fit distances between 0.1 and 4.2 kpc. These sources were selected by targeting the

The complex centered on Ghd7 binds to numerous carbon and nitrogen metabolism genes on the genome through the corresponding motifs and transactivates the transcriptional expression of these carbon and nitrogen metabolism genes. With the assistance of OsNAC42 and other unknown Ghd7‐interacting proteins, this complex can regulate different metabolic ...
