Brown Dwarf Retrievals on FIRE!: Atmospheric Constraints and Lessons Learned from High Signal-to-Noise Medium Resolution Spectroscopy of a T9 Dwarf
Callie E. Hood, Jonathan J. Fortney, Michael R. Line +1
Brown dwarf spectra offer vital testbeds for our understanding of the chemical and physical processes that sculpt substellar atmospheres. Recently, atmospheric retrieval approaches…
Towards Robust Atmospheric Retrieval on Cloudy L Dwarfs: The Impact of Thermal and Abundance Profile Assumptions
Melanie Rowland, Caroline Morley, Michael Line
Constraining L dwarf properties from their spectra is challenging. Near-infrared spectra probe a limited range of pressures, while many species condense within their photospheres.…
The SPHINX M-dwarf Spectral Grid. I. Benchmarking New Model Atmospheres to Derive Fundamental M-Dwarf Properties
Aishwarya R. Iyer, Michael R. Line, Philip S. Muirhead +2
About 70-80% of stars in our solar and galactic neighborhood are M dwarfs. They span a range of low masses and temperatures relative to solar-type stars, facilitating molecule form…
A Uniform Retrieval Analysis of Ultra-cool Dwarfs. IV. A Statistical Census from 50 Late-T Dwarfs
Joseph A Zalesky, Kezman Saboi, Michael R. Line +5
The spectra of brown dwarfs are key to exploring the chemistry and physics that take place in their atmospheres. Late-T dwarf spectra are particularly diagnostic due to their relat…
New Candidate Extreme T Subdwarfs from the Backyard Worlds: Planet 9 Citizen Science Project
Aaron M. Meisner, Adam C. Schneider, Adam J. Burgasser +29
Schneider et al. (2020) presented the discovery of WISEA J041451.67-585456.7 and WISEA J181006.18-101000.5, which appear to be the first examples of extreme T-type subdwarfs (esdTs…
Uniform Forward-Modeling Analysis of Ultracool Dwarfs. II. Atmospheric Properties of 55 Late-T Dwarfs
Zhoujian Zhang, Michael C. Liu, Mark S. Marley +2
We present a large forward-modeling analysis for 55 late-T (T7-T9) dwarfs, using low-resolution () near-infrared spectra and cloudless Sonora-Bobcat model atmospheres.…
