Large-amplitude Variability Driven by Giant Dust Storms on a Planetary-mass Companion

Xianyu Tan, Xi Zhang, Mark S. Marley +17

Large-amplitude variations are commonly observed in the atmospheres of directly imaged exoplanets and brown dwarfs. VHS 1256B, the most variable known planet-mass object, exhibits…

The Diversity of Cold Worlds: Age and Characterization of the Exoplanet COCONUTS-2b

Rocio Kiman, Charles A. Beichman, Azul Ruiz Diaz +19

Studying cold brown dwarfs is key to understanding the diverse characteristics of cold giant exoplanets atmospheres. COCONUTS-2, is a wide binary system composed of a T9 brown dwar…

The JWST weather report from the nearest brown dwarfs III: Heterogeneous clouds and Thermochemical instabilities as possible drivers of WISE 1049AB's spectroscopic variability

Natalia Oliveros-Gomez, Elena Manjavacas, Theodora Karalidi +17

We present a new analysis of the spectroscopic variability of WISE~J104915.57531906.1AB (WISE~1049AB, L7.5+T0.5), observed using the NIRSpec instrument onboard the James Webb Sp…

Observation of undepleted phosphine in the atmosphere of a low-temperature brown dwarf

Adam J. Burgasser, Eileen C. Gonzales, Samuel A. Beiler +16

The atmospheres of low-temperature brown dwarfs and gas giant planets are expected to contain the phosphine molecule, PH However, previous observations have shown much lower ab…

X-SHYNE: X-Shooter spectra of young exoplanet analogs II. Presentation and analysis of the full library

Simon Petrus, Gaël Chauvin, Mickaël Bonnefoy +29

The X-SHYNE library is a homogeneous sample of 43 medium-resolution (R=8000) infrared (0.3-2.5um) spectra of young (<500Myr), low-mass (<20Mjup), and cold (Teff=600-2000K) isolated…

The JWST weather report from the nearest brown dwarfs II: Consistent variability mechanisms over 7 months revealed by 1-14 m NIRSpec + MIRI monitoring of WISE 1049AB

Xueqing Chen, Beth A. Biller, Xianyu Tan +22

We present a new epoch of JWST spectroscopic variability monitoring of the benchmark binary brown dwarf WISE 1049AB, the closest, brightest brown dwarfs known. Our 8-hour MIRI low…

Disentangling the Effects of Temperature, Clouds, and Gravity on K I doublet in L dwarfs

Alexandra J. Baldelli, Genaro Suárez, Kelle L. Cruz +2

We investigate the effects of surface gravity, effective temperature, and cloudiness on the potassium doublet (\ion{K}{1}) at 1.17 μm in brown dwarf spectra. Using pseudo-Voigt pro…

The Diversity of Cold Worlds: a blended-light binary straddling the T/Y transition in brown dwarfs

Daniella C. Bardalez Gagliuffi, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Genaro Suarez +22

We present the first brown dwarf spectral binary characterized with JWST: WISE J014656.66+423410.0, the coldest blended-light brown dwarf binary straddling the T/Y transition. We o…
