Discovery of Cold Brown Dwarfs or Free-Floating Giant Planets Close to the Sun
Sandy K. Leggett, Daniel Apai, Adam Burgasser +9
This White Paper describes the opportunities for discovery of Jupiter-mass objects with 300K atmospheres. The discovery and characterization of such cold objects is vital for under…
Discovery of a T Dwarf Binary with the Largest Known J-Band Flux Reversal
D. L. Looper, C. R. Gelino, A. J. Burgasser +1
We present Keck laser guide star observations of two T2.5 dwarfs - 2MASS J11061197+2754225 & 2MASS J14044941-3159329 - using NIRC2 on Keck-II and find 2MASS J14044941-3159329 to be…
SDSS J042348.57-041403.5AB: A Brown Dwarf Binary Straddling the L/T Transition
Adam J. Burgasser, I. Neill Reid, S. K. Leggett +3
We present the discovery of SDSS J042348.57-041403.5 as a closely-separated (0"16) brown dwarf binary, resolved by the Hubble Space Telescope Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object…
Limits on WIMP cross-sections from the NAIAD experiment at the Boulby Underground Laboratory
The UK Dark Matter Collaboration
The NAIAD experiment (NaI Advanced Detector) for WIMP dark matter searches at the Boulby Underground Laboratory (North Yorkshire, UK) ran from 2000 until 2003. A total of 44.9 kg x…
Optical Spectroscopy of T Dwarfs
Adam J. Burgasser, J. Davy Kirkpatrick
Optical spectra are presented for a sample of T dwarfs, obtained using the Keck 10m Low Resolution Imaging Spectrograph. Dominant features are discussed, including possible tempera…
