Discovery of a new Y dwarf: WISE J030449.03-270508.3

D. J. Pinfield, M. Gromadzki, S. K. Leggett +21

We present a new Y dwarf, WISE J030449.03-270508.3, confirmed from a candidate sample designed to pick out low temperature objects from the WISE database. The new object is typed Y…

New galactic star clusters discovered in the VVV survey. Candidates projected on the inner disk and bulge

J. Borissova, A. -N. Chené, S. Ramírez Alegría +21

VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea (VVV) is one of six ESO Public Surveys using the 4 meter Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). The VVV survey covers the Mi…

Spectroscopic signatures of youth in low-mass kinematic candidates of young moving groups

M. C. Gálvez-Ortiz, M. Kuznetsov, J. R. A. Clarke +12

We present a study of age-related spectral signatures observed in 25 young low-mass objects that we have previously determined as possible kinematic members of five young moving gr…

Parallaxes of five L Dwarfs with a Robotic Telescope

Y. Wang, H. R. A. Jones, R. L. Smart +14

We report the parallax and proper motion of five L dwarfs obtained with observations from the robotic Liverpool Telescope. Our derived proper motions are consistent with published…

Parallaxes of Southern Extremely Cool objects (PARSEC) II: Spectroscopic Follow-up and Parallaxes of 52 Targets

F. Marocco, A. H. Andrei, R. L. Smart +8

We present near-infrared spectroscopy for 52 ultracool dwarfs, including two newly discovered late-M dwarfs, one new late-M subdwarf candidate, three new L and four new T dwarfs. W…

A deep WISE search for very late type objects and the discovery of two halo/thick-disk T dwarfs: WISE 0013+0634 and WISE 0833+0052

D. J. Pinfield, J. Gomes, A. C. Day-Jones +21

A method is defined for identifying late T and Y dwarfs in WISE down to low values of signal-to-noise. This requires a WISE detection only in the W2-band and uses the statistical p…
