The Field Substellar Mass Function Based on the Full-sky 20-pc Census of 525 L, T, and Y Dwarfs
J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Christopher R. Gelino, Jacqueline K. Faherty +49
We present final Spitzer trigonometric parallaxes for 361 L, T, and Y dwarfs. We combine these with prior studies to build a list of 525 known L, T, and Y dwarfs within 20 pc of th…
Spitzer Follow-up of Extremely Cold Brown Dwarfs Discovered by the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 Citizen Science Project
Aaron M. Meisner, Jacqueline K. Faherty, J. Davy Kirkpatrick +40
We present Spitzer follow-up imaging of 95 candidate extremely cold brown dwarfs discovered by the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project, which uses visually perceived…
Discovery of a Nearby Young Brown Dwarf Disk
M. C. Schutte, K. D. Lawson, J. P. Wisniewski +15
We report the discovery of the youngest brown dwarf with a disk at 102 pc from the Sun, WISEA~J120037.79-784508.3 (W1200-7845), via the Disk Detective citizen science project. We e…
Exploring the evolution of stellar rotation using Galactic kinematics
Ruth Angus, Angus Beane, Adrian M. Price-Whelan +9
The rotational evolution of cool dwarfs is poorly constrained after around 1-2 Gyr due to a lack of precise ages and rotation periods for old main-sequence stars. In this work we u…
