An HST survey of photometry and multiplicity of brown dwarfs and planetary-mass objects in the field of Taurus

Pengyu Liu, Beth A. Biller, Clémence Fontanive +11

We present a photometric and multiplicity survey of 26 young objects with masses between 6 Mj and 37 Mj and spectral type later than M8 in the Taurus star-forming region with the H…

Revealing the substellar population of IC 1396: A spectroscopic survey of brown dwarfs in the region

Belinda Damian, Jessy Jose, Aleks Scholz +7

We present a new spectroscopic view of the brown dwarf population in the young star-forming region IC 1396 and investigate the impact of environment on low-mass star formation. We…

A Novel Survey for Young Substellar Objects with the W-band Filter. VII. Water-Bearing Objects in the Core of the Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex

Tanvi Sharma, Wen-Ping Chen, Beth Biller +6

We present a study of very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs in the rich star-forming core of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex. The selection of the sample relies on detecting the inhe…

Search for Brown Dwarfs in IC 1396 with Subaru HSC: Interpreting the Impact of Environmental Factors on Sub-stellar Population

Saumya Gupta, Jessy Jose, Swagat Ranjan Das +4

Young stellar clusters are predominantly the hub of star formation and hence, ideal to perform comprehensive studies over the least explored sub-stellar regime. Various unanswered…

A novel survey for young substellar objects with the W-band filter VI: Spectroscopic census of sub-stellar members and the IMF of Orionis cluster

Belinda Damian, Jessy Jose, Beth Biller +11

Low-mass stars and sub-stellar objects are essential in tracing the initial mass function (IMF). We study the nearby young Orionis cluster (d408 pc; age1.8 Myr) usi…
