Preliminary Trigonometric Parallaxes of 184 Late-T and Y Dwarfs and an Analysis of the Field Substellar Mass Function into the "Planetary" Mass Regime
J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Emily C. Martin, Richard L. Smart +16
We present preliminary trigonometric parallaxes of 184 late-T and Y dwarfs using observations from Spitzer (143), USNO (18), NTT (14), and UKIRT (9). To complete the 20-pc census o…
Y dwarf Trigonometric Parallaxes from the Spitzer Space Telescope
Emily C. Martin, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Charles A. Beichman +12
Y dwarfs provide a unique opportunity to study free-floating objects with masses 30 M and atmospheric temperatures approaching those of known Jupiter-like exoplanets. Ob…
Non-detection of Contamination by Stellar Activity in the Spitzer Transit Light Curves of TRAPPIST-1
Brett M. Morris, Eric Agol, Leslie Hebb +6
We apply the transit light curve self-contamination technique of Morris et al. (2018) to search for the effect of stellar activity on the transits of the ultracool dwarf TRAPPIST-1…
Multiwavelength Light Curves of Two Remarkable Sagittarius A* Flares
G. G. Fazio, J. L. Hora, G. Witzel +13
Sgr A*, the supermassive black hole (SMBH) at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy, is known to be a variable source of X-ray, near-infrared (NIR), and submillimeter (submm) radiatio…
Variability Timescale and Spectral Index of Sgr A* in the Near Infrared: Approximate Bayesian Computation Analysis of the Variability of the Closest Supermassive Black Hole
G. Witzel, G. Martinez, J. Hora +16
Sagittarius A* (Sgr A*) is the variable radio, near-infrared (NIR), and X-ray source associated with accretion onto the Galactic center black hole. We present an analysis of the mo…
The Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science Program for JWST
Jacob L. Bean, Kevin B. Stevenson, Natalie M. Batalha +99
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) presents the opportunity to transform our understanding of planets and the origins of life by revealing the atmospheric compositions, structur…
