The First Ultra-Cool Brown Dwarf Discovered by the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer
A. Mainzer, Michael C. Cushing, M. Skrutskie +17
We report the discovery of the first new ultra-cool brown dwarf found with the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE). The object's preliminary designation is WISEPC J045853.90…
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…
An Association in the Aquila Star-Forming Region: High Resolution Infrared Spectroscopy of T Tauri Stars
E. L. Rice, L. Prato, I. S. McLean
We present the properties of a group of young stars associated with the well-studied T Tauri star system AS 353, located in the Aquila star-forming region. The association is ident…
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 …
The Smallest Mass Ratio Young Star Spectroscopic Binaries
L. Prato, M. Simon, T. Mazeh +3
Using high resolution near-infrared spectroscopy with the Keck telescope, we have detected the radial velocity signatures of the cool secondary components in four optically identif…
