Effect of Ionic Disorder on the Principal Shock Hugoniot

Crystal F. Ottoway, Daniel A. Rehn, Didier Saumon +1

The effect of ionic disorder on the principal Hugoniot is investigated using Multiple Scattering Theory to very high pressure (Gbar). Calculations using molecular dynamics to simul…

Ultracool Dwarfs Observed with the Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph. I. An Accurate Look at the L-to-T Transition at 300 Myr from Optical through Mid-infrared Spectrophotometry

Genaro Suárez, Stanimir Metchev, Sandy K. Leggett +2

We present IRS 5--14 m spectra and 16 m and 22 m photometry of the T2.5 companion to the 300 Myr-old G0V star HN Peg. We incorporate previous 0.8--5 m o…

Cloud busting: enstatite and quartz clouds in the atmosphere of 2M2224-0158

Ben Burningham, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Eileen C. Gonzales +7

We present the most detailed data-driven exploration of cloud opacity in a substellar object to-date. We have tested over 60 combinations of cloud composition and structure, partic…
