An HST survey of photometry and multiplicity of brown dwarfs and planetary-mass objects in the field of Taurus
Pengyu Liu, Beth A. Biller, Clémence Fontanive +11
We present a photometric and multiplicity survey of 26 young objects with masses between 6 Mj and 37 Mj and spectral type later than M8 in the Taurus star-forming region with the H…
A Novel Survey for Young Substellar Objects with the W-band Filter. VII. Water-Bearing Objects in the Core of the Rho Ophiuchi Cloud Complex
Tanvi Sharma, Wen-Ping Chen, Beth Biller +6
We present a study of very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs in the rich star-forming core of the Rho Ophiuchi cloud complex. The selection of the sample relies on detecting the inhe…
Testing particle acceleration in blazar jets with continuous high-cadence optical polarization observations
Ioannis Liodakis, Sebastian Kiehlmann, Alan P. Marscher +44
Variability can be the pathway to understanding the physical processes in astrophysical jets, however, the high-cadence observations required to test particle acceleration models a…
A novel survey for young substellar objects with the W-band filter VI: Spectroscopic census of sub-stellar members and the IMF of Orionis cluster
Belinda Damian, Jessy Jose, Beth Biller +11
Low-mass stars and sub-stellar objects are essential in tracing the initial mass function (IMF). We study the nearby young Orionis cluster (d408 pc; age1.8 Myr) usi…
A Novel Survey for Young Substellar Objects with the W band Filter.V. IC 348 and Barnard 5 in the Perseus Cloud
Bhavana Lalchand, Wen-Ping Chen, Beth A. Biller +10
We report the discovery of substellar objects in the young star cluster IC 348 and the neighboring Barnard 5 dark cloud, both at the eastern end of the Perseus star-forming complex…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Single Epoch Transients and Variability of Faint Sources
Doug Johnstone, Bhavana Lalchand, Steve Mairs +13
Short-duration flares at millimeter wavelengths provide unique insights into the strongest magnetic reconnection events in stellar coronae, and combine with longer-term variability…
The JCMT Transient Survey: Four Year Summary of Monitoring the Submillimeter Variability of Protostars
Yong-Hee Lee, Doug Johnstone, Jeong-Eun Lee +49
We present the four-year survey results of monthly submillimeter monitoring of eight nearby (pc) star-forming regions by the JCMT Transient Survey. We apply the Lomb-Scargl…
A Novel Survey for Young Substellar Objects with the W-band filter III: Searching for very low mass brown dwarfs in Serpens South and Serpens Core
Sophie Dubber, Beth Biller, Katelyn Allers +10
We present CFHT photometry and IRTF spectroscopy of low-mass candidate members of Serpens South and Serpens Core (430 pc, 0.5 Myr), identified using a novel combination…
A Novel Survey for Young Substellar Objects with the W-band filter II. The Coolest and Lowest Mass Members of the Serpens-South Star-forming Region
Jessy Jose, Beth A. Biller, Loıc Albert +13
Given its relative proximity (~430 pc), compact size (< 20'), young age (~ 0.5 Myr) and rich number of young stellar objects, the Serpens-South star forming region is a promising s…
Submillimetre Transient Science in the Next Decade: EAO Submillimetre Futures White Paper Series, 2019
Steve Mairs, Gregory Herczeg, Doug Johnstone +11
This white paper gives a brief summary of the time domain science that has been performed with the JCMT in recent years and highlights the opportunities for continuing work in this…
The JCMT Transient Survey: An Extraordinary Submillimetre Flare in the T Tauri Binary System JW 566
Steve Mairs, Bhavana Lalchand, Geoffrey C. Bower +7
The binary T Tauri system JW 566 in the Orion Molecular Cloud underwent an energetic, short-lived flare observed at submillimetre wavelengths by the SCUBA-2 instrument on 26 Novemb…
How do stars gain their mass? A JCMT/SCUBA-2 Transient Survey of Protostars in Nearby Star Forming Regions
Gregory J. Herczeg, Doug Johnstone, Steve Mairs +55
Most protostars have luminosities that are fainter than expected from steady accretion over the protostellar lifetime. The solution to this problem may lie in episodic mass accreti…
