Spectroscopic Detection of Carbon Monoxide in Two Late-type T Dwarfs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
M band spectra of two late-type T dwarfs, 2MASS J09373487+2931409, and Gliese 570D, confirm evidence from photometry that photospheric CO is present at abundance levels far in excess of those predicted from chemical equilibrium. These new and unambiguous

THE ORBIT OF THE L DWARF + T DWARF SPECTRAL BINARY SDSS J080531.84+481233.0* [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT SDSS J080531.84+481233.0 is a closely separated, very-low-mass (VLM) binary identified through combined-light spectroscopy and confirmed as an astrometric variable. Here we report four years of radial velocity monitoring observations of the system that reveal significant and periodic variability, confirming the binary nature of ...

Brown Dwarf Retrievals on FIRE!: Atmospheric Constraints and Lessons Learned from High Signal-to-noise Medium-resolution Spectroscopy of a T9 Dwarf

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Brown dwarf spectra offer vital testbeds for our understanding of the chemical and physical processes that sculpt substellar atmospheres. Recently, atmospheric retrieval approaches have been successfully applied to low-resolution ( R ∼ 100) spectra of L,

SDSS J080531.84+481233.0: An Unresolved L Dwarf/T Dwarf Binary [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2007
SDSS J080531.84+481233.0 is a peculiar L-type dwarf that exhibits unusually blue near-infrared and mid-infrared colors and divergent optical (L4) and near-infrared (L9.5) spectral classifications. These peculiar spectral traits have been variously attributed to condensate cloud effects or subsolar metallicity.

Weather on Other Worlds. II. Survey Results: Spots Are Ubiquitous on L and T Dwarfs

open access: yes, 2014
We present results from the "Weather on Other Worlds" Spitzer Exploration Science program to investigate photometric variability in L and T dwarfs, usually attributed to patchy clouds.

76 T dwarfs from the UKIDSS LAS : benchmarks, kinematics and an updated space density [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We report the discovery of 76 new T dwarfs from the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) Large Area Survey (LAS). Near-infrared broad- and narrow-band photometry and spectroscopy are presented for the new objects, along with Wide-field Infrared Survey
