TL;DR: The Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) is one of three focal plane instruments on the Spitzer Space Telescope as mentioned in this paper, which is a four-channel camera that obtains simultaneous broadband images at 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8.0 m.
Journal ArticleDOI
Meeting the Cool Neighbors. X. Ultracool Dwarfs from the 2MASS All-Sky Data Release
I. Neill Reid,I. Neill Reid,Kelle L. Cruz,Kelle L. Cruz,J. Davy Kirkpatrick,J. Davy Kirkpatrick,P. R. Allen,P. R. Allen,F. Mungall,F. Mungall,James Liebert,James Liebert,Patrick J. Lowrance,Patrick J. Lowrance,Anne Sweet +14 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used data from the 2 Micron All Sky Survey All-Sky Point Source Catalogue (AASSP) to extend the census of nearby ultracool dwarfs to cover the full celestial sphere above Galactic latitude of 15°.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Sample of Very Young Field L Dwarfs and Implications for the Brown Dwarf “Lithium Test” at Early Ages*

TL;DR: In this paper, a large sample of optical spectra of late-type dwarfs was used to identify a subset of late M through L field dwarfs that, because of the presence of low-gravity features in their spectra, are believed to be unusually young.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repeatability and Accuracy of Exoplanet Eclipse Depths Measured with Post-Cryogenic Spitzer

TL;DR: In this paper, the repeatability, reliability, and accuracy of differential exoplanet eclipse depth measurements made using the InfraRed Array Camera (IRAC) on the Spitzer Space Telescope during the post-cryogenic mission were examined.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported observations of a planet transiting AU Microscopii (AU Mic b), which has an orbital period of 846 days, an orbital distance of 007-astronomical units, a radius of 04-Jupiter radii, and a mass of less than 18 Jupiter masses at 3σ confidence.
