• Download

From an initial list of galaxy names, retrieve some of their properties from Virtual Observatory archives and services (NASA Extragalactic Database NED), and calculate others like Distance, based on the ones previously obtained (e.g. recession velocity, equatorial and galactic coordinates). The sample is filtered in a later step with criteria related to the angular size of the object and its declination. The goal is to build a sample of objects and their properties with up-to-date physical in...

Discovery of Brown Dwarfs mining the 2MASS... (1)

• Download

Brown dwarfs are objects occupying the gap between the least massive stars and the most massive planets. They are intrinsically faint objects so their detection is not straighforward and, in fact, was almost impossible until the advent of global surveys at deep optical and near-infrared bands like SDSS, 2MASS or DENIS among others. Here we propose to mine the SDSS and 2MASS databases to identify T-type brown dwarfs through an appropriate combination of colours in the optical and the infra-red...
