Weather on Other Worlds. II. Survey Results: Spots Are Ubiquitous on L and T Dwarfs
Stanimir Metchev, Aren Heinze, Dániel Apai +7
We present results from the "Weather on Other Worlds" Spitzer Exploration Science program to investigate photometric variability in L and T dwarfs, usually attributed to patchy clo…
HST Rotational Spectral Mapping of Two L-Type Brown Dwarfs: Variability In and Out of Water Bands Indicates High-Altitude Haze Layers
Hao Yang, Daniel Apai, Mark S. Marley +13
We present time-resolved near-infrared spectroscopy of two L5 dwarfs, 2MASS J18212815+1414010 and 2MASS J15074759-1627386, observed with the Wide Field Camera 3 instrument on the H…
Cloud structure of the nearest brown dwarfs: Spectroscopic variability of Luhman 16AB from the Hubble Space Telescope
Esther Buenzli, Didier Saumon, Mark. S. Marley +5
The binary brown dwarf WISE J104915.57531906.1 (also Luhman 16AB), composed of a late L and early T dwarf, is a prototypical L/T transition flux reversal binary located at only…
An independent analysis of the brown dwarf atmosphere monitoring (BAM) data: large-amplitude variability is rare outside the L/T transition
Jacqueline Radigan
Observations of variability can provide valuable information about the processes of cloud formation and dissipation in brown dwarf atmospheres. Here we report the results of an ind…
Strong Brightness Variations Signal Cloudy-to-Clear Transition of Brown Dwarfs
Jacqueline Radigan, David Lafrenière, Ray Jayawardhana +1
[ABRIDGED] We report the results of a band search for cloud-related variability in the atmospheres of 62 L4-T9 dwarfs using the Du Pont 2.5-m telescope at Las Campanas Observat…
A Monitoring Campaign for Luhman 16AB. I. Detection of Resolved Near-Infrared Spectroscopic Variability
Adam J. Burgasser, Michael Gillon, Jacqueline K. Faherty +7
[abbreviated] We report resolved near-infrared spectroscopic monitoring of the nearby L dwarf/T dwarf binary WISE J104915.57-531906.1AB (Luhman 16AB), as part of a broader campaign…
