Discovery of the Second Y+Y Dwarf Binary System: CWISEP J193518.59-154620.3
Matthew De Furio, Jacqueline Kelly Faherty, Daniella C. Bardalez Gagliuffi +10
We present the discovery of a companion to the Y-dwarf, CWISEP J193518.59-154620.3, the second Y-Y dwarf binary detected to date. Y-dwarfs are the coldest known free-floating objec…
