2MASS J11151597+1937266: A Young, Dusty, Isolated, Planetary-Mass Object with a Potential Wide Stellar Companion
Christopher A. Theissen, Adam J. Burgasser, Daniella C. Bardalez Gagliuffi +4
We present 2MASS J11151597+1937266, a recently identified low-surface gravity L dwarf, classified as an L2 based on Sloan Digital Sky Survey optical spectroscopy. We confirm thi…
Who asks questions at astronomy meetings?
Sarah J. Schmidt, James R. A. Davenport
Over the last decade, significant attention has been drawn to the gender ratio of speakers at conferences, and many meetings are evolving to better reflect the gender balance of th…
The Effect of Atmospheric Cooling on the Vertical Velocity Dispersion and Density Distribution of Brown Dwarfs
Russell E. Ryan, Paul A. Thorman, Sarah J. Schmidt +7
We present a Monte Carlo simulation designed to predict the vertical velocity dispersion of brown dwarfs in the Milky Way. We show that since these stars are constantly cooling, th…
The Time-Domain Spectroscopic Survey: Target Selection for Repeat Spectroscopy
Chelsea L. MacLeod, Paul J. Green, Scott F. Anderson +35
As astronomers increasingly exploit the information available in the time domain, spectroscopic variability in particular opens broad new channels of investigation. Here we describ…
The Role of Gender in Asking Questions at Cool Stars 18 and 19
Sarah J. Schmidt, Stephanie Douglas, Natalie M. Gosnell +4
We examine the gender balance of the 18th and 19th meetings of the Cambridge Workshop on Cool Stellar Systems and the Sun (CS18 and CS19). The percent of female attendees at both m…
K2 Ultracool Dwarfs Survey II: The White Light Flare Rate of Young Brown Dwarfs
John E. Gizis, Rishi R. Paudel, Dermott Mullan +3
We use Kepler K2 Campaign 4 short-cadence (one-minute) photometry to measure white light flares in the young, moving group brown dwarfs 2MASS J03350208+2342356 (2M0335+23) and 2MAS…
