A SPHEREx Pipeline and Spectral Library for Ultracool Dwarfs
Jonathan Gagné, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Azul Ruiz Diaz +72
We present a Python spectrophotometry extraction tool tailored for fast-moving point sources detected in the SPHEREx mission, and use it to construct a set of 0.75-5.0 m low-res…
Three Thousand Motion-Confirmed L and T Dwarf Candidates from the Backyard Worlds:~Planet 9 Citizen Science Project
Adam C. Schneider, Marc J. Kuchner, Jacqueline K. Faherty +73
The Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project uses data from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer to detect infrared objects with significant motion. In this work, we pr…
High Proper Motion Discoveries from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey
Wings Zhang, Adam C. Schneider, Thomas P. Bickle +31
We used the third data release of the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey to locate previously unrecognized high proper motion objects. We identify a total of 127 new discoveries with total pr…
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…
Discovery of 118 New Ultracool Dwarf Candidates Using Machine Learning Techniques
Hunter Brooks, Dan Caselden, J. Davy Kirkpatrick +44
We present the discovery of 118 new ultracool dwarf candidates, discovered using a new machine learning tool, named \texttt{SMDET}, applied to time series images from the Wide-fiel…
Eight New Substellar Hyades Candidates from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey
Adam C. Schneider, Michael C. Cushing, Robert A. Stiller +16
We have used the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey (UHS) combined with the UKIDSS Galactic Cluster Survey (GCS), the UKIDSS Galactic Plane Survey (GPS), and the CatWISE2020 catalog to search…
Discovery of a Hypervelocity L Subdwarf at the Star/Brown Dwarf Mass Limit
Adam J. Burgasser, Roman Gerasimov, Kyle Kremer +18
We report the discovery of a high velocity, very low-mass star or brown dwarf whose kinematics suggest it is unbound to the Milky Way. CWISE J124909.08+362116.0 was identified by c…
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…
89 New Ultracool Dwarf Co-Moving Companions Identified With The Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 Citizen Science Project
Austin Rothermich, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Daniella Bardalez-Gagliuffi +43
We report the identification of 89 new systems containing ultracool dwarf companions to main sequence stars and white dwarfs, using the citizen science project Backyard Worlds: Pla…
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…
Redder than Red: Discovery of an Exceptionally Red L/T Transition Dwarf
Adam C. Schneider, Adam J. Burgasser, Justice Bruursema +26
We present the discovery of CWISE J050626.96073842.4 (CWISE J05060738), an L/T transition dwarf with extremely red near-infrared colors discovered through the Backyard Worlds…
Substellar Hyades Candidates from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey
Adam C. Schneider, Frederick J. Vrba, Jeffrey A. Munn +14
We have used data from the UKIRT Hemisphere Survey (UHS) to search for substellar members of the Hyades cluster. Our search recovered several known substellar Hyades members, and t…
