Discovery of a Low-Mass Companion to the Accelerating Star HIP 53005 with Strongly Conflicting Mass Estimates
Taichi Uyama, Thayne Currie, Jerry W. Xuan +22
We present the discovery of a low-mass companion located at 0\farcs{}85 () from the early-type 1.2 Gyr-old star HIP 53005 using direct imagin…
SCExAO/CHARIS Spectroscopic Characterization of Cloudy L/T Transition Companion Brown Dwarf HIP 93398 B
Briley Lewis, Yiting Li, Aidan Gibbs +10
Brown dwarfs with measured dynamical masses and spectra from direct imaging are benchmarks that anchor substellar atmosphere cooling and evolution models. We present Subaru SCExAO/…
Direct-imaging Discovery of a Substellar Companion Orbiting the Accelerating Variable Star, HIP 39017
Taylor L. Tobin, Thayne Currie, Yiting Li +23
We present the direct-imaging discovery of a substellar companion (a massive planet or low-mass brown dwarf) to the young, Doradus-type variable star, HIP 39017 (HD 65526). The…
Dynamical Masses and Ages of Sirius-like Systems
Hengyue Zhang, Timothy D. Brandt, Rocio Kiman +4
We measure precise orbits and dynamical masses and derive age constraints for six confirmed and one candidate Sirius-like systems, including the Hyades member HD 27483. Our orbital…
Surveying Nearby Brown Dwarfs with HGCA: Direct Imaging Discovery of a Faint, High-Mass Brown Dwarf Orbiting HD 176535 A
Yiting Li, Timothy D. Brandt, G. Mirek Brandt +16
Brown dwarfs with well-measured masses, ages and luminosities provide direct benchmark tests of substellar formation and evolutionary models. We report the first results from a dir…
Precise Dynamical Masses of Epsilon Indi Ba and Bb: Evidence of Slowed Cooling at the L/T Transition
Minghan Chen, Yiting Li, Timothy D. Brandt +3
We report individual dynamical masses of and for the binary brown dwarfs Indi Ba and Bb, measured from long te…
Dynamical Mass of the Young Substellar Companion HD 984 B
Kyle Franson, Brendan P. Bowler, Timothy D. Brandt +5
Model-independent masses of substellar companions are critical tools to validate models of planet and brown dwarf cooling, test their input physics, and determine the formation and…
Improved Dynamical Masses for Six Brown Dwarf Companions Using Hipparcos and Gaia EDR3
G. Mirek Brandt, Trent J. Dupuy, Yiting Li +8
We present comprehensive orbital analyses and dynamical masses for the substellar companions Gl~229~B, Gl~758~B, HD~13724~B, HD~19467~B, HD~33632~Ab, and HD~72946~B. Our dynamical…
The McDonald Accelerating Stars Survey (MASS): Discovery of a Long-Period Substellar Companion Orbiting the Old Solar Analog HD 47127
Brendan P. Bowler, Michael Endl, William D. Cochran +12
Brown dwarfs with well-determined ages, luminosities, and masses provide rare but valuable tests of low-temperature atmospheric and evolutionary models. We present the discovery an…
SCExAO/CHARIS Direct Imaging Discovery of a 20 au Separation, Low-Mass Ratio Brown Dwarf Companion to an Accelerating Sun-like Star
Thayne Currie, Timothy D. Brandt, Masayuki Kuzuhara +27
We present the direct imaging discovery of a substellar companion to the nearby Sun-like star, HD 33632 Aa, at a projected separation of 20 au, obtained with SCExAO/CHARIS i…
