Searching for Faint Comoving Companions to the Centauri system in the VVV Survey Infrared Images

J. C. Beamin, D. Minniti, J. B. Pullen +7

The VVV survey has observed the southern disk of the Milky Way in the near infrared, covering 240 deg in the filters. We search the VVV Survey images in a 19…

Physical parameters of late M-type members of Chamaleon I and TW Hydrae Association: Dust settling, age dispersion and activity

A. Bayo, D. Barrado, F. Allard +6

Although mid-to-late type M dwarfs are the most common stars in our stellar neighborhood, our knowledge of these objects is still limited. Open questions include the evolution of t…

Discovery of a brown dwarf companion to the A3V star β Circini

L. C. Smith, P. W. Lucas, C. Contreras Peña +14

We report the discovery of an L dwarf companion to the A3V star β Circini. VVV J151721.49-585131.5, or β Cir B, was identified in a proper motion and parallax catalogue of the Vist…

Spectro-photometric characterization of high proper motion sources from WISE

J. C. Beamín, V. D. Ivanov, D. Minniti +7

The census of the solar neighborhood is almost complete for stars and becoming more complete in the brown dwarf regime. Spectroscopic, photometric and kinematic characterization of…

Properties of the solar neighbor WISE J072003.20-084651.2

V. D. Ivanov, P. Vaisanen, A. Y. Kniazev +14

The severe crowding towards the Galactic plane suggests that the census of nearby stars in that direction may be incomplete. Recently, Scholz reported a new M9 object at an estimat…
