The L dwarf/T dwarf transition: multiplicity, magnetic activity and mineral meteorology across the hydrogen burning limit

Adam J. Burgasser

The transition between the L dwarf and T dwarf spectral classes is one of the most remarkable along the stellar/brown dwarf Main Sequence, separating sources with photospheres cont…

Extremely metal-poor gas at a redshift of 7

Robert A. Simcoe, Peter W. Sullivan, Kathy L. Cooksey +3

In typical astrophysical environments, the abundance of heavy elements ranges from 0.001 to 2 times the solar concentration. Lower abundances have been seen in select stars in the…

Keck NIRSPEC Radial Velocity Observations of Late-M dwarfs

Angelle Tanner, Russel White, John Bailey +5

We present the results of an infrared spectroscopic survey of 23 late-M dwarfs with the NIRSPEC echelle spectrometer on the Keck II telescope. Using telluric lines for wavelength c…
