Deep Learning–driven Atmospheric Parameter Prediction for Hot Subdwarf Stars with Synthetic and Observed Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We design a convolutional neural network incorporating channel attention and spatial attention mechanisms to predict atmospheric parameters of hot subdwarfs.

Detection of Methane in the Closest Extreme Metal-poor T Dwarf WISEA J181006.18−101000.5

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
WISEA J181006.18−101000.5 (WISE1810) is the nearest metal-poor ultracool dwarf to the Sun. It has a low effective temperature and has been classified as an extreme early-T subdwarf.

UNCOVER: JWST Spectroscopy of Three Cold Brown Dwarfs at Kiloparsec-scale Distances

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report JWST/NIRSpec spectra of three distant T-type brown dwarfs identified in the Ultradeep NIRSpec and NIRCam ObserVations before the Epoch of Reionization (UNCOVER) survey of the Abell 2744 lensing field.

High Proper Motion Discoveries from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We used the third data release of the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey to locate previously unrecognized high proper motion objects. We identify a total of 127 new discoveries with total proper motions ≳300 mas yr ^−1 .

Brown Dwarf Candidates in the JADES and CEERS Extragalactic Surveys

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
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

Observations of the Ultraviolet-bright Star III-60 in the Globular Cluster NGC 6723

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We have analyzed archival far-ultraviolet spectra of the UV-bright star III-60 in the globular cluster NGC 6723 obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer and the Cosmic Origins Spectrograph. We find that the star's photospheric parameters (

Parallaxes, Proper Motions, and Near-infrared Photometry for 173 L and T Dwarfs from the US Naval Observatory Infrared Astrometry Program

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present near-infrared parallax and proper motion astrometry for 74 L dwarfs and 99 T dwarfs, as single objects or in binary systems, obtained with the ASTROCAM astrometric imager on the USNO, Flagstaff Station 1.55 m telescope over two observing ...

A New Route to Massive Hot Subdwarfs: Common Envelope Ejection from Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The hot subdwarf O/B stars (sdO/Bs) are known as extreme horizontal branch stars, which is of great importance in stellar evolution theory. The sdO/Bs are generally thought to have a helium-burning core and a thin hydrogen envelope ( M _env < 0.02 M _⊙ ).

Hot Stars in the GALEX Ultraviolet Sky Surveys (GUVcat_AISxSDSS_HS) and the Binary Fraction of Hot Evolved Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We present a catalog of 71,364 pointlike UV sources with Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry and GALEX far-UV (FUV)−near-UV (NUV) ≤0.1 mag.

Spitzer Studies of Ultracool Subdwarfs: Metal-poor Late-type M, L and T Dwarfs

open access: yes, 2005
Recent discoveries from red optical proper motion and wide-field near-infrared surveys have uncovered a new population of ultracool subdwarfs, metal-poor stars and brown dwarfs extending into the late-type M, L and possibly T spectral classes. These objects are among the first low-mass stars and brown dwarfs formed in the Galaxy, and are valuable ...
