Two late-T dwarfs at kiloparsec distances revealed by JWST UNCOVER survey

D. H. Li, Z. H. Zhang, H. H. Peng +3

We conducted a search for brown dwarf candidates in a James Webb Space Telescope deep field around A2744 to investigate the space density of these objects at kiloparsec distances.…

Benchmark brown dwarfs -- I. A blue M2 + T5 wide binary and a probable young [M4 + M4] + [T7 + T8] hierarchical quadruple

Z. H. Zhang, F. Navarete, M. C. Galvez-Ortiz +13

Benchmark brown dwarfs in wide binary systems are crucial for characterizing substellar objects and calibrating atmospheric and evolutionary models. However, brown dwarf benchmarks…

The Gaia Ultracool Dwarf Sample -- IV. GTC/OSIRIS optical spectra of Gaia late-M and L dwarfs

W. J. Cooper, H. R. A. Jones, R. L. Smart +20

As part of our comprehensive, ongoing characterisation of the low-mass end of the main sequence in the Solar neighbourhood, we used the OSIRIS instrument at the 10.4 m Gran Telesco…

Primeval very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs - III. The halo transitional brown dwarfs

Z. H. Zhang, D. J. Pinfield, M. C. Galvez-Ortiz +11

We report the discovery of an esdL3 subdwarf, ULAS J020858.62+020657.0, and a usdL4.5 subdwarf, ULAS J230711.01+014447.1. They were identified as L subdwarfs by optical spectra obt…

Low-resolution near-infrared spectroscopic signatures of unresolved ultracool companions to M dwarfs

N. J. Cook, D. J. Pinfield, F. Marocco +14

We develop a method to identify the spectroscopic signature of unresolved L-dwarf ultracool companions, which compares the spectra of candidates and their associated control stars…

Primeval very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs - II. The most metal-poor substellar object

Z. H. Zhang, D. Homeier, D. J. Pinfield +4

SDSS J010448.46+153501.8 has previously been classified as an sdM9.5 subdwarf. However, its very blue colour () suggests a much lower metallicity compared to…

Primeval very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs. I. Six new L subdwarfs, classification and atmospheric properties

Z. H. Zhang, D. J. Pinfield, M. C. Galvez-Ortiz +10

We have conducted a search for L subdwarf candidates within the photometric catalogues of the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey and Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Six of our candidates are…
