Multi-Epoch Stability in the Rotational Modulation of the Planetary-Mass Companion Ross 458C

Elena Manjavacas, Jared Bull, Paulo Miles-Paez +7

Spectroscopic variability is detected in brown dwarfs across all spectral types, suggesting atmospheric patchiness in brown dwarf atmospheres. We present JWST/NIRSpec time series o…

A Grid of Contribution Functions to Help the Interpretation of Time-resolved Observations of Brown Dwarfs

Myrla Phillippe, Theodora Karalidi, Elena Manjavacas +4

We present a grid of thermal emission contribution functions and their corresponding atmospheric spectra model for cloudy and cloud-free brown dwarfs, spanning effective temperatur…

The JWST weather report from the nearest brown dwarfs III: Heterogeneous clouds and Thermochemical instabilities as possible drivers of WISE 1049AB's spectroscopic variability

Natalia Oliveros-Gomez, Elena Manjavacas, Theodora Karalidi +17

We present a new analysis of the spectroscopic variability of WISE~J104915.57531906.1AB (WISE~1049AB, L7.5+T0.5), observed using the NIRSpec instrument onboard the James Webb Sp…

The JWST weather report from the nearest brown dwarfs II: Consistent variability mechanisms over 7 months revealed by 1-14 m NIRSpec + MIRI monitoring of WISE 1049AB

Xueqing Chen, Beth A. Biller, Xianyu Tan +22

We present a new epoch of JWST spectroscopic variability monitoring of the benchmark binary brown dwarf WISE 1049AB, the closest, brightest brown dwarfs known. Our 8-hour MIRI low…

The JWST Weather Report from the Nearest Brown Dwarfs I: multi-period JWST NIRSpec + MIRI monitoring of the benchmark binary brown dwarf WISE 1049AB

Beth A. Biller, Johanna M. Vos, Yifan Zhou +22

We report results from 8 hours of JWST/MIRI LRS spectroscopic monitoring directly followed by 7 hours of JWST/NIRSpec prism spectroscopic monitoring of the benchmark binary brown d…

An Informed and Systematic Method to Identify Variable mid-L dwarfs

Natalia Oliveros-Gomez, Elena Manjavacas, Daniella C. Bardalez Gagliuffi +3

Most brown dwarfs show some level of photometric or spectral variability. However, finding the most variable dwarfs more suited for a thorough variability monitoring campaign remai…
