Uniform Forward-Modeling Analysis of Ultracool Dwarfs. III. Late-M and L Dwarfs in Young Moving Groups, the Pleiades, and the Hyades

Spencer A. Hurt, Michael C. Liu, Zhoujian Zhang +5

We present a uniform forward-modeling analysis of 90 late-M and L dwarfs in nearby young (~ Myr) moving groups, the Pleiades, and the Hyades using low-resolution ($R\approx…

The Hawaii Infrared Parallax Program. VI. The Fundamental Properties of 1000+ Ultracool Dwarfs and Planetary-mass Objects Using Optical to Mid-IR SEDs and Comparison to BT-Settl and ATMO 2020 Model Atmospheres

Aniket Sanghi, Michael C. Liu, William M. Best +7

We derive the bolometric luminosities () of 865 field-age and 189 young ultracool dwarfs (spectral types M6-T9, including 40 new discoveries presented here) by di…

The Pan-STARRS1 Proper-motion Survey for Young Brown Dwarfs in Nearby Star-forming Regions. I. Taurus Discoveries and a Reddening-free Classification Method for Ultracool Dwarfs

Zhoujian Zhang, Michael C. Liu, William M. J. Best +11

We are conducting a proper-motion survey for young brown dwarfs in the Taurus-Auriga molecular cloud based on the Pan-STARRS1 3 Survey. Our search uses multi-band photometry and…

A Search for L/T Transition Dwarfs With Pan-STARRS1 and WISE. III. Young L Dwarf Discoveries and Proper Motion Catalogs in Taurus and Scorpius-Centaurus

William M. J. Best, Michael C. Liu, Eugene A. Magnier +13

We present the discovery of eight young M7-L2 dwarfs in the Taurus star-forming region and the Scorpius-Centaurus OB Association, serendipitously found during a wide-field search f…

Stellar & Planetary Parameters for K2's Late Type Dwarf Systems from C1 to C5

Arturo O. Martinez, Ian J. M. Crossfield, Joshua E. Schlieder +12

The NASA K2 mission uses photometry to find planets transiting stars of various types. M dwarfs are of high interest since they host more short period planets than any other type o…

2MASS 0213+3648 C: A wide T3 benchmark companion to an an active, old M dwarf binary

N. R. Deacon, E. A. Magnier, Michael C. Liu +14

We present the discovery of a 360 AU separation T3 companion to the tight (3.1 AU) M4.5+M6.5 binary 2MASS J02132062+3648506. This companion was identified using Pan-STARRS1 data an…
