JWST detection of methane emission from a young brown dwarf
K. L. Luhman, C. Alves de Oliveira, J. K. Faherty +1
In recent studies, we have used low-resolution spectroscopy (R~100) with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to uncover low-mass brown dwarfs (2-10 MJup) in the young cluster IC…
Water Cloud and Chemical Modulations in the Coldest Brown Dwarf
Brittany E. Miles, James Mang, Caroline V. Morley +24
We present high signal-to-noise, medium resolution (R ~ 1000), time-series JWST/NIRSpec spectra of WISE 0855 (265K), the coldest known brown dwarf. Medium resolution, time-series s…
Tempawral: A Time-Resolved Retrieval Framework for Variable Brown Dwarfs and Exoplanets
Fei Wang, Ben Burningham, Stuart Littlefair +4
Brown dwarfs and exoplanets are thought to host complex atmospheric phenomena such as clouds, storms, and chemical heterogeneity, akin to weather patterns on Earth. These features…
The Diversity of Cold Worlds: Age and Characterization of the Exoplanet COCONUTS-2b
Rocio Kiman, Charles A. Beichman, Azul Ruiz Diaz +19
Studying cold brown dwarfs is key to understanding the diverse characteristics of cold giant exoplanets atmospheres. COCONUTS-2, is a wide binary system composed of a T9 brown dwar…
Silicate Precursor Silane detected in Cold Low-Metallicity Brown Dwarf
Jacqueline K. Faherty, Aaron M. Meisner, Ben Burningham +28
Within 20 pc of the Sun there are currently 29 known cold brown dwarfs, sources with measured distances and an estimated effective temperature between that of Jupiter (170K) and ~5…
The JWST Weather Report from the Isolated Exoplanet Analog SIMP 0136+0933: Pressure-Dependent Variability Driven by Multiple Mechanisms
Allison M. McCarthy, Johanna M. Vos, Philip S. Muirhead +17
Isolated planetary-mass objects share their mass range with planets but do not orbit a star. They lack the necessary mass to support fusion in their cores and thermally radiate the…
