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…
EV-Flying: an Event-based Dataset for In-The-Wild Recognition of Flying Objects
Gabriele Magrini, Federico Becattini, Giovanni Colombo +1
Monitoring aerial objects is crucial for security, wildlife conservation, and environmental studies. Traditional RGB-based approaches struggle with challenges such as scale variati…
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…
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…
