The puzzle of the formation of T8 dwarf Ross 458c
Josefine Gaarn, Ben Burningham, Jacqueline K. Faherty +7
At the lowest masses, the distinction between brown dwarfs and giant exoplanets is often blurred and literature classifications rarely reflect the deuterium burning boundary. Atmos…
A 1.46-2.48 m Spectroscopic Atlas of a T6 Dwarf (1060 K) Atmosphere with IGRINS: First Detections of HS and H, and Verification of HO, CH, and NH Line Lists
Megan E. Tannock, Stanimir Metchev, Callie E. Hood +5
We present Gemini South/IGRINS observations of the 1060 K T6 dwarf 2MASS J081730016155158 with unprecedented resolution () and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR >…
The first retrieval of a substellar subdwarf: A cloud-free SDSS J125637.13-022452.4
Eileen C. Gonzales, Ben Burningham, Jacqueline K. Faherty +5
We present the first retrieval analysis of a substellar subdwarf, SDSS J125637.13-022452.4 (SDSS J1256-0224), using the Brewster retrieval code base. We find SDSS J1256-0224 is bes…
The Sonora Brown Dwarf Atmosphere and Evolution Models I. Model Description and Application to Cloudless Atmospheres in Rainout Chemical Equilibrium
Mark S. Marley, Didier Saumon, Channon Visscher +8
We present a new generation of substellar atmosphere and evolution models, appropriate for application to studies of L, T, and Y-type brown dwarfs and self-luminous extrasolar plan…
Following the Lithium: Tracing Li-bearing Molecules Across Age, Mass, and Gravity in Brown Dwarfs
Ehsan Gharib-Nezhad, Mark S. Marley, Natasha E. Batalha +3
Lithium is an important element for the understanding of ultracool dwarfs because it is lost to fusion at masses above . Hence, the presence or absence of atom…
Cloud busting: enstatite and quartz clouds in the atmosphere of 2M2224-0158
Ben Burningham, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Eileen C. Gonzales +7
We present the most detailed data-driven exploration of cloud opacity in a substellar object to-date. We have tested over 60 combinations of cloud composition and structure, partic…
