距离太阳2 pc的~250 K褐矮星的发现

Discovery of a ~250 K Brown Dwarf at 2 pc from the Sun

K. L. Luhman

摘要:

通过以前对宽视场红外巡天探测器(WISE)多历元天体测量的分析,我确定WISE J085510.83-071442.5是一个新的高自行天体。通过结合WISE和斯皮策太空望远镜的天体测量,我测量了WISE J085510.83-071442.5的自行为8.1+/-0.1”/yr,视差为0.454+/-0.045”(2.20+0.24/-0.20 pc),使其成为任何已知恒星或褐矮星中自行第三高和视差第四大的恒星。它也是已知最冷的棕矮星,基于它的绝对星等为4.5微米,颜色在[3.6]-[4.5]。通过比较M4.5与理论演化模型预测的值,我估计有效温度为225-260 K,质量为3-10 Mjup,年龄范围为1-10 Gyr,包括大多数附近的恒星。

英文摘要:

Through a previous analysis of multi-epoch astrometry from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), I identified WISE J085510.83-071442.5 as a new high proper motion object. By combining astrometry from WISE and the Spitzer Space Telescope, I have measured a proper motion of 8.1+/-0.1"/yr and a parallax of 0.454+/-0.045" (2.20+0.24/-0.20 pc) for WISE J085510.83-071442.5, giving it the third highest proper motion and the fourth largest parallax of any known star or brown dwarf. It is also the coldest known brown dwarf based on its absolute magnitude at 4.5um and its color in [3.6]-[4.5]. By comparing M4.5 with the values predicted by theoretical evolutionary models, I estimate an effective temperature of 225-260 K and a mass of 3-10 Mjup for the age range of 1-10 Gyr that encompasses most nearby stars.
