Bridging the Gap: Using Brown Dwarfs to Examine Silicate Clouds in Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres

Emily Calamari, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Channon Visscher +5

We present results from examining the silicate cloud modeling of four JWST-observed hot Jupiters in the context of brown dwarf theory to further explore signatures of formation in…

Eight New Substellar Hyades Candidates from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey

Adam C. Schneider, Michael C. Cushing, Robert A. Stiller +16

We have used the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey (UHS) combined with the UKIDSS Galactic Cluster Survey (GCS), the UKIDSS Galactic Plane Survey (GPS), and the CatWISE2020 catalog to search…

The Initial Mass Function Based on the Full-sky 20-pc Census of 3,600 Stars and Brown Dwarfs

J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Federico Marocco, Christopher R. Gelino +85

A complete accounting of nearby objects -- from the highest-mass white dwarf progenitors down to low-mass brown dwarfs -- is now possible, thanks to an almost complete set of trigo…

Multimessenger observations of counterparts to IceCube-190331A

Felicia Krauß, Emily Calamari, Azadeh Keivani +9

High-energy neutrinos are a promising tool for identifying astrophysical sources of high and ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECR). Prospects of detecting neutrinos at high energie…

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems VIII: patchy forsterite and enstatite clouds in the atmosphere of VHS 1256 b, retrieval lessons learned and outlook to the future

Niall Whiteford, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +123

JWST defines a new era for the data-driven approach of retrieval modelling, which has become a cornerstone tool for the statistical inference of exoplanetary and brown dwarf proper…

The puzzle of the formation of T8 dwarf Ross 458c

Josefine Gaarn, Ben Burningham, Jacqueline K. Faherty +7

At the lowest masses, the distinction between brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets is often blurred and literature classifications rarely reflect the deuterium burning boundary. Atmos…
