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…
Cosmic Evolution Early Release Science Survey (CEERS): Multi-classing Galactic Dwarf Stars in the deep JWST/NIRCam
B. W. Holwerda, Chih-Chun Hsu, Nimish Hathi +20
Low mass (sub)stellar objects represent the low end of the initial mass function, the transition to free-floating planets and a prominent interloper population in the search for hi…
TESS discovery of a super-Earth orbiting the M dwarf star TOI-1680
M. Ghachoui, A. Soubkiou, R. D. Wells +52
We report the discovery by the TESS mission of a super-Earth on a 4.8-d orbit around an inactive M4.5 dwarf (TOI-1680) validated by ground-based facilities. The host star is locate…
A 1.55 R habitable-zone planet hosted by TOI-715, an M4 star near the ecliptic South Pole
Georgina Dransfield, Mathilde Timmermans, Amaury H. M. J. Triaud +48
A new generation of observatories is enabling detailed study of exoplanetary atmospheres and the diversity of alien climates, allowing us to seek evidence for extraterrestrial biol…
Prospects for Detecting Gaps in Globular Cluster Stellar Streams in External Galaxies with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope
Christian Aganze, Sarah Pearson, Tjitske Starkenburg +5
Stellar streams form through the tidal disruption of satellite galaxies or globular clusters orbiting a host galaxy. Globular cluster streams are exciting since they are thin (dyna…
JWST/NIRCam discovery of the first Y+Y brown dwarf binary: WISE J033605.05014350.4
Per Calissendorff, Matthew De Furio, Michael Meyer +25
We report the discovery of the first brown dwarf binary system with a Y dwarf primary, WISE J033605.05014350.4, observed with NIRCam on JWST with the F150W and F480M filters. We…
A super-Earth and a mini-Neptune near the 2:1 MMR straddling the radius valley around the nearby mid-M dwarf TOI-2096
F. J. Pozuelos, M. Timmermans, B. V. Rackham +72
Several planetary formation models have been proposed to explain the observed abundance and variety of compositions of super-Earths and mini-Neptunes. In this context, multitransit…
Redder than Red: Discovery of an Exceptionally Red L/T Transition Dwarf
Adam C. Schneider, Adam J. Burgasser, Justice Bruursema +26
We present the discovery of CWISE J050626.96073842.4 (CWISE J05060738), an L/T transition dwarf with extremely red near-infrared colors discovered through the Backyard Worlds…
