Spectroscopic Characterization of WD J000801.25-350450 and its Two Co-Moving Companions

Peter A. Jałowiczor, Thomas P. Bickle, J. Davy Kirkpatrick +18

We present new spectroscopic data for Gaia DR3 2309499817384726016 (WD0008-350A) and its two wide, co-moving, low-mass companions. We confirm the white dwarf is a hydrogen-rich DA,…

Unveiling the Infrared Excess of SIPS J2045-6332: Evidence for a Young Stellar Object with Potential Low-Mass Companion

Michiharu Hyogo, Thomas P. Bickle, Joseph R. Biggs +20

The Disk Detective project, a citizen science initiative, aims to identify circumstellar discs around stars by detecting objects with infrared (IR) excess using data from the Wide-…

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…

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…
