The Y dwarf population with HST: unlocking the secrets of our coolest neighbours -- I. Overview & First astrometric results

Clemence Fontanive, Luigi R. Bedin, Daniella C. Bardalez Gagliuffi

In this paper we present our project that aims at determining accurate distances and proper motions for the Y brown dwarf population using the Hubble Space Telescope. We validate t…

The K2 M67 Study: Precise Mass for a Turnoff Star in the Old Open Cluster M67

Eric L. Sandquist, David W. Latham, Robert. D. Mathieu +8

We present a study of the bright detached eclipsing main sequence binary WOCS 11028 (Sanders 617) in the open cluster M67. Although the binary has only one eclipse per orbital cycl…

2D kinematics of massive stars near the Galactic Center

Mattia Libralato, Daniel J. Lennon, Andrea Bellini +12

The presence of massive stars (MSs) in the region close to the Galactic Center (GC) poses several questions about their origin. The harsh environment of the GC favors specific form…

Cloud Atlas: Unraveling the vertical cloud structure with the time-series spectrophotometry of an unusually red brown dwarf

Ben W. P. Lew, Dániel Apai, Mark Marley +8

Rotational modulations of emission spectra in brown dwarf and exoplanet atmospheres show that clouds are often distributed non-uniformly in these ultracool atmospheres. The spatial…
