Epsilon Indi Ba, Bb: a detailed study of the nearest known brown dwarfs (2009)
King, Robert R., McCaughrean, Mark J., Homeier, Derek, Allard, France, Scholz, Ralf-Dieter, Lodieu, Nicolas
The discovery of epsilon Indi Ba, Bb, a binary brown dwarf system very close to the Sun, makes possible a concerted campaign to characterise the physical parameters of two T dwarfs. Recent...
Epsilon Indi Ba, Bb: a spectroscopic study of the nearest known brown dwarfs (2008)
King, Robert R., McCaughrean, Mark J., Homeier, Derek, Allard, France, Scholz, Ralf-Dieter, Lodieu, Nicolas
The discovery of Epsilon Indi Ba and Bb, a nearby binary brown dwarf system with a main-sequence companion, allows a concerted campaign to characterise the physical parameters of two T dwarfs...
Ultracool Subdwarfs: The Halo Population Down to the Substellar Limit (2008)
Burgasser, Adam J., Lepine, Sebastien, Lodieu, Nicolas, Scholz, Ralf-Dieter, Delorme, Phillippe, Jao, Wei-Chun, ...
Ultracool subdwarfs are low luminosity, late-type M and L dwarfs that exhibit spectroscopic indications of subsolar metallicity and halo kinematics. Their recent discovery and ongoing investigation...
A Substellar Mass Function for Alpha Per (2002)
Navascues, David Barrado Y, Bouvier, Jerome, Stauffer, John R., Lodieu, Nicolas, McCaughrean, Mark J.
We present a deep, wide-field optical survey of the young stellar cluster Alpha Per, in which we have discovered a large population of candidate brown dwarfs. Subsequent infrared photometric...
McCaughrean, Mark J., Scholz, Ralf-Dieter, Lodieu, Nicolas
We have identified two late M dwarfs within 10 parsecs of the Sun, by cross-correlating the Luyten NLTT catalogue of stars with proper motions larger than 0.18 arcsec/yr, with objects lacking optical...
