Surface Gravities for 228 M, L, and T Dwarfs in the NIRSPEC Brown Dwarf Spectroscopic Survey
Emily C. Martin, Gregory N. Mace, Ian S. McLean +6
We combine 131 new medium-resolution (R~2000) J-band spectra of M, L, and T dwarfs from the Keck NIRSPEC Brown Dwarf Spectroscopic Survey (BDSS) with 97 previously published BDSS s…
Discoveries from a Near-infrared Proper Motion Survey using Multi-epoch 2MASS Data
J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Dagny L. Looper, Adam J. Burgasser +12
We have conducted a 4030-square-deg near-infrared proper motion survey using multi-epoch data from the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS). We find 2778 proper motion candidates, 647…
Discovery of Two Nearby, Peculiar L Dwarfs from the 2MASS Proper Motion Survey: Young or Metal-Rich?
Dagny L. Looper, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Roc M. Cutri +9
We present the discovery of two nearby L dwarfs from our 2MASS proper motion search, which uses multi-epoch 2MASS observations covering ~4700 square degrees of sky. 2MASS J18212815…
The NIRSPEC Brown Dwarf Spectroscopic Survey II: High-Resolution J-Band Spectra of M, L and T Dwarfs
Ian S. McLean, L. Prato, Mark R. McGovern +4
We present a sequence of high resolution (R~20,000 or 15 km/s) infrared spectra of stars and brown dwarfs spanning spectral types M2.5 to T6. Observations of 16 objects were obtain…
Discovery of a Very Young Field L Dwarf, 2MASS J01415823-4633574
J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Travis S. Barman, Adam J. Burgasser +4
While following up L dwarf candidates selected photometrically from the Two Micron All Sky Survey, we uncovered an unusual object designated 2MASS J01415823-4633574. Its optical sp…
S Ori 70: Just a Foreground Field Brown Dwarf?
Adam J. Burgasser, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Mark R. McGovern +3
We examine recent claims that the T-type brown dwarf S Ori 053810.1-023626 (S Ori 70) is a spectroscopically verified low mass (3 M) member of the 1--8 Myr …
