The dusty atmosphere of the brown dwarf Gliese 229B.
The brown dwarf Gliese 229B has an observable atmosphere too warm to contain ice clouds like those on Jupiter and too cool to contain silicate clouds like those on low-mass stars. These unique conditions permit visibility to higher pressures than possible in cool stars or planets. Gliese 229B's 0.85- to 1.0-micrometer spectrum indicates particulates deep in the atmosphere (10 to 50 bars) having...
متن کاملThe Near-infrared Spectrum of the Brown Dwarf Gliese 229b
A medium resolution 1.0− 2.5 μm spectrum of the brown dwarf, Gliese 229B has been obtained using CGS4 on UKIRT. In addition to the broad spectral structure seen in earlier low resolution observations, the new spectrum reveals a large number of absorption lines, many of which can be identified with water vapor. Water and methane are both shown to be strong absorbers in the near-infrared spectrum...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Hipparcos Measurements of HD 10697: A Mass Determination of a Brown Dwarf Secondary.
HD 10697 is a nearby main-sequence star around which a planet candidate has recently been discovered by means of radial velocity measurements (Vogt et al.). The stellar orbit has a period of about 3 yr, the secondary minimum mass is 6.35 Jupiter masses (MJ), and the minimum semimajor axis is 0.36 mas. Using the Hipparcos data of HD 10697 together with the spectroscopic elements of Vogt et al., ...
متن کاملA Possible Brown Dwarf Companion to the White Dwarf Gd1400
An unresolved, likely L dwarf companion to the DA white dwarf GD1400 is reported. This would be only the second such system known, discovered 17 years after the prototype L dwarf, GD165B, was determined to be a companion to a white dwarf. Photometric observations and model predicted stellar parameters of the well studied white dwarf primary indicate that GD1400B has J−K & 2.0 and MK = 12.13 mag...
متن کاملHot Methane Line Lists for Exoplanet and Brown Dwarf Atmospheres
We present comprehensive experimental line lists of methane (CH4) at high temperatures obtained by recording Fourier transform infrared emission spectra. Calibrated line lists are presented for the temperatures 300–1400◦C at twelve 100◦C intervals spanning the 960–5000 cm−1 (2.0–10.4μm) region of the infrared. This range encompasses the dyad, pentad, and octad regions, i.e., all fundamental vib...
