Astrometric Accelerations as Dynamical Beacons: Discovery and Characterization of HIP 21152 B, the First T-Dwarf Companion in the Hyades
Kyle Franson, Brendan P. Bowler, Mariangela Bonavita +28
Benchmark brown dwarf companions with well-determined ages and model-independent masses are powerful tools to test substellar evolutionary models and probe the formation of giant p…
Examining the Rotation Period Distribution of the 40 Myr Tucana-Horologium Association with TESS
Mark Popinchalk, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Jason L. Curtis +6
The Tucana-Horologium Association (Tuc-Hor) is a 40 Myr old moving group in the southern sky. In this work, we measure the rotation periods of 313 Tuc-Hor objects with TESS light c…
Three low-mass companions around aged stars discovered by TESS
Zitao Lin, Tianjun Gan, Sharon X. Wang +42
We report the discovery of three transiting low-mass companions to aged stars: a brown dwarf (TOI-2336b) and two objects near the hydrogen burning mass limit (TOI-1608b and TOI-252…
Discovery of 16 New Members of the Solar Neighborhood using Proper Motions from CatWISE2020
Tarun Kota, J. Davy Kirkpatrick, Dan Caselden +17
In an effort to identify nearby and unusual cold objects in the solar neighborhood, we searched for previously unidentified moving objects using CatWISE2020 proper motion data comb…
A Wide Planetary Mass Companion Discovered Through the Citizen Science Project Backyard Worlds: Planet 9
Jacqueline K. Faherty, Jonathan Gagne, Mark Popinchalk +24
Through the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 citizen science project we discovered a late-type L dwarf co-moving with the young K0 star BD+60 1417 at a projected separation of 37" or 1662…
BANYAN. IX. The Initial Mass Function and Planetary-Mass Object Space Density of the TW Hya Association
Jonathan Gagné, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Eric E. Mamajek +15
A determination of the initial mass function (IMF) of the current, incomplete census of the 10 Myr-old TW Hya association (TWA) is presented. This census is built from a literature…
