New Cold Subdwarf Discoveries from Backyard Worlds and a Metallicity Classification System for T Subdwarfs

Adam J. Burgasser, Adam C. Schneider, Aaron M. Meisner +36

We report the results of a spectroscopic survey of candidate T subdwarfs identified by the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 program. Near-infrared spectra of 31 sources with red co…

Three short-period Earth-sized planets around M dwarfs discovered by TESS: TOI-5720b, TOI-6008b and TOI-6086b

K. Barkaoui, R. P. Schwarz, N. Narita +53

One of the main goals of the NASA's TESS (Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite) mission is the discovery of Earth-like planets around nearby M-dwarf stars. Here, we present the di…

Detection of an Earth-sized exoplanet orbiting the nearby ultracool dwarf star SPECULOOS-3

Michaël Gillon, Peter P. Pedersen, Benjamin V. Rackham +81

Located at the bottom of the main sequence, ultracool dwarf stars are widespread in the solar neighbourhood. Nevertheless, their extremely low luminosity has left their planetary p…

Thirteen New M Dwarf + T Dwarf Pairs Identified with WISE/NEOWISE

Federico Marocco, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Adam C. Schneider +31

We present the discovery of 13 new widely separated T dwarf companions to M dwarf primaries, identified using WISE/NEOWISE data by the CatWISE and Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 project…

TOI-4336 A b: A temperate sub-Neptune ripe for atmospheric characterization in a nearby triple M-dwarf system

M. Timmermans, G. Dransfield, M. Gillon +54

Small planets transiting bright nearby stars are essential to our understanding of the formation and evolution of exoplanetary systems. However, few constitute prime targets for at…

The Brown Dwarf Kinematics Project (BDKP). VI. Ultracool Dwarf Radial and Rotational Velocities from SDSS/APOGEE High-resolution Spectroscopy

Chih-Chun Hsu, Adam J. Burgasser, Christopher A. Theissen +11

We present precise measurements of radial (RV) and projected rotational () velocities, effective temperatures, and surface gravities of a sample of 258 M6 to L2 dwarfs wi…
