The First Direct Measurements of Magnetic Fields on Very Low-Mass Stars
A. Reiners, G. Basri
We present the first direct magnetic field measurements on M dwarfs cooler than spectral class M4.5. Utilizing a new method based on the effects of a field on the FeH band near 1 m…
Planetesimals To Brown Dwarfs: What is a Planet?
Gibor Basri, Michael E. Brown
The past 15 years have brought about a revolution in our understanding of our Solar System and other planetary systems. During this time, discoveries include the first Kuiper Belt…
A Survey for Spectroscopic Binaries Among Very Low-Mass Stars
Gibor Basri, Ansgar Reiners
We report on the results of a survey for radial velocity variability in a heterogeneous sample of very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs. One distinguishing characteristic of the sur…
Measuring Magnetic Fields in Ultracool Stars and Brown Dwarfs
Ansgar Reiners, Gibor Basri
We present a new method for direct measurement of magnetic fields on ultracool stars and brown dwarfs. It takes advantage of the Wing-Ford band of FeH, which are seen throughout th…
