UVES spectra of young brown dwarfs in Cha I: radial and rotational velocities
Based on high-resolution UVES spectra we found that the radial velocity (RV) dispersion of nine of twelve known young bona fide and candidate brown dwarfs in the Cha I dark cloud is 2.0 kms, i.e. significantly smaller than the RV dispersion of T Tauri stars in Cha I (3.6 km/s) and only slightly larger than the dispersion of the surrounding molecular gas (1.2 km/s) (Mizuno et al. 1999). This res...
متن کاملSpectroscopic rotational velocities of brown dwarfs
We have obtained projected rotation velocities (vrot sin i) of a sample of 19 ultracool dwarfs with spectral types in the interval M6.5–T8 using high-resolution, near-infrared spectra obtained with NIRSPEC and the Keck II telescope. Among our targets there are two young brown dwarfs, two likely field stars, and fifteen likely brown dwarfs (30–72MJup) of the solar neighborhood. Our results indic...
متن کاملGAIA Spectroscopy and Radial Velocities
GAIA spectroscopic and radial velocity performancies are reviewed on the base of groundbased test observations and simulations. The prospects for accurate analysis of stellar atmospheres (temperature, gravity, chemical abundances, rotation, peculiarities) and precise radial velocities (single stars, binaries, pulsating stars) are colorful provided the spectral dispersion is high enough. A highe...
متن کاملPrecision radial velocities of double - lined spectroscopic binaries with an iodine absorption cell
A spectroscopic technique employing an iodine absorption cell (I 2) to superimpose a reference spectrum onto a stellar spectrum is currently the most widely adopted approach to obtain precision radial velocities of solar-type stars. It has been used to detect ∼80 extrasolar planets out of ∼130 known. Yet in its original version, it only allows us to measure precise radial velocities of single s...
متن کاملA Pathfinder Instrument for Precision Radial Velocities in the Near-Infrared
We have designed and tested an in-plane echelle spectrograph configured to investigate precision radial velocities from ground-based near-infrared observations. The spectrograph operates across the spectral range of 0.9–1.7 μm at a spectral resolution of R 1⁄4 50; 000, and uses a liquid nitrogen-cooled HAWAII 1 K detector. Repeated measurements of the Earth’s rotation via integrated sunlight wi...
