Fifteen new T dwarfs discovered in the UKIDSS Large Area Survey
D. J. Pinfield, B. Burningham, M. Tamura +32
We present the discovery of fifteen new T2.5-T7.5 dwarfs (with estimated distances between ~24-93pc, identified in the first three main data releases of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky…
Discovery of a nearby L-T transition object in the Southern Galactic plane
Stuart L. Folkes, David J. Pinfield, Tim R. Kendall +1
We present the discovery of 2MASS J11263991-5003550 identified as part of an ongoing survey to discover ultra-cool dwarfs in the Southern Galactic Plane, using data from the 2MASS…
New, nearby bright southern ultracool dwarfs
T. R. Kendall, H. R. A. Jones, D. J. Pinfield +5
We report the discovery of twenty-one hitherto unknown bright southern ultracool dwarfs with spectral types in the range M7 to L5.5, together with new observations of a further thr…
Finding benchmark brown dwarfs to probe the IMF as a function of time
D. J. Pinfield, H. R. A. Jones, P. W. Lucas +5
Using a simulated disk brown dwarf (BD) population, we find that new large area infrared surveys are expected to identify enough BDs covering wide enough mass--age ranges to potent…
Structure and star formation in disk galaxies II. Optical imaging
J. H. Knapen, S. Stedman, D. M. Bramich +2
We present optical observations of a sample of 57 spiral galaxies and describe the procedures followed to reduce the data. We have obtained images in the optical B and I broad band…
