WISE2150-7520AB: A very low mass, wide co-moving brown dwarf system discovered through the citizen science project Backyard Worlds: Planet 9
Jacqueline K. Faherty, Sam Goodman, Dan Caselden +11
We report the discovery of WISE2150-7520AB (W2150AB): a widely separated (~ 341 AU) very low mass L1 + T8 co-moving system. The system consists of the previously known L1 primary 2…
ACRONYM III: Radial Velocities for 336 Candidate Young Low-Mass Stars in the Solar Neighborhood, Including 78 Newly Confirmed Young Moving Group Members
Adam C. Schneider, Evgenya L. Shkolnik, Katelyn N. Allers +4
Young, low-mass stars in the solar neighborhood are vital for completing the mass function for nearby, young coeval groups, establishing a more complete census for evolutionary stu…
Brown Dwarfs and Directly Imaged Exoplanets in Young Associations
Jacqueline K. Faherty, Katelyn Allers, Daniella Bardalez Gagliuffi +7
In order to understand the atmospheres as well as the formation mechanism of giant planets formed outside our solar system, the next decade will require an investment in studies of…
Astro2020 White Paper: The L/T Transition
Johanna M. Vos, Katelyn Allers, Daniel Apai +10
The L/T transition is an important evolutionary phase in brown dwarf atmospheres, providing us with a unique opportunity to explore the effects of clouds, convection, winds, gravit…
The Early Evolution of Stars and Exoplanet Systems: Exploring and Exploiting Nearby, Young Stars (an Astro2020 Science White Paper)
Joel H. Kastner, Katelyn Allers, Brendan Bowler +12
Our knowledge of the population of young (age <=750 Myr) stars that lie within ~120 pc of the Sun is rapidly accelerating. The vast majority of these nearby, young stars can be pla…
A 3 Gyr White Dwarf with Warm Dust Discovered via the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 Citizen Science Project
John H. Debes, Melina Thevenot, Marc Kuchner +15
Infrared excesses due to dusty disks have been observed orbiting white dwarfs with effective temperatures between 7200 K and 25000 K, suggesting that the rate of tidal disruption o…
