Bridging the Gap: Using Brown Dwarfs to Examine Silicate Clouds in Giant Exoplanet Atmospheres

Emily Calamari, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Channon Visscher +5

We present results from examining the silicate cloud modeling of four JWST-observed hot Jupiters in the context of brown dwarf theory to further explore signatures of formation in…

The Diversity of Cold Worlds: Age and Characterization of the Exoplanet COCONUTS-2b

Rocio Kiman, Charles A. Beichman, Azul Ruiz Diaz +19

Studying cold brown dwarfs is key to understanding the diverse characteristics of cold giant exoplanets atmospheres. COCONUTS-2, is a wide binary system composed of a T9 brown dwar…

Silicate Precursor Silane detected in Cold Low-Metallicity Brown Dwarf

Jacqueline K. Faherty, Aaron M. Meisner, Ben Burningham +28

Within 20 pc of the Sun there are currently 29 known cold brown dwarfs, sources with measured distances and an estimated effective temperature between that of Jupiter (170K) and ~5…

Diversity of Cold Worlds: A Near Complete Spectral Energy Distribution for 2MASS J04151954-0935066 using JWST

Sherelyn Alejandro Merchan, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Genaro Suárez +25

We present the a near complete spectral energy distribution (SED) for an extrasolar world: the T8 brown dwarf 2MASS~J041519540935066. Spanning from optical to mid-infrared (0.7-…

Protosolar D-to-H abundance and one part-per-billion PH in the coldest brown dwarf

Melanie J. Rowland, Caroline V. Morley, Brittany E. Miles +24

The coldest Y spectral type brown dwarfs are similar in mass and temperature to cool and warm (200 -- 400 K) giant exoplanets. We can therefore use their atmospheres as proxi…

Retrieving Young Cloudy L-Dwarfs: A Nearby Planetary-Mass Companion BD+60 1417B and Its Isolated Red Twin W0047

Caprice L. Phillips, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham +11

We present an atmospheric retrieval analysis on a set of young, cloudy, red L-dwarfs -- CWISER J124332.12+600126.2 and WISEP J004701.06+680352.1 -- using the \textit{Brewster} retr…

Methane Emission From a Cool Brown Dwarf

Jacqueline K. Faherty, Ben Burningham, Jonathan Gagné +21

Beyond our solar system, aurorae have been inferred from radio observations of isolated brown dwarfs (e.g. Hallinan et al. 2006; Kao et al. 2023). Within our solar system, giant pl…
