Title: | The Y dwarf population with HST: unlocking the secrets of our coolest neighbours - I. Overview and first astrometric results | Authors: | Fontanive, C. BEDIN, Luigi Bardalez Gagliuffi, D. C. |
Issue Date: | 2021 | Journal: | MONTHLY NOTICES OF THE ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY | Number: | 501 | Issue: | 1 | First Page: | 911 | Abstract: | In this paper, we present our project that aims at determining accurate distances and proper motions for the Y brown dwarf population using the Hubble Space Telescope. We validate the program with our first results, using a single new epoch of observations of the Y0pec dwarf WISE J163940.83-684738.6. These new data allowed us to refine its proper motion and improve the accuracy of its parallax by a factor of three compared to previous determinations, now constrained to ϖ = 211.11 ± 0.56 mas. This newly derived absolute parallax corresponds to a distance of 4.737 ± 0.013 pc, an exquisite and unprecedented precision for faint ultracool Y dwarfs. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/33004 | URL: | https://academic.oup.com/mnras/article/501/1/911/6017306 http://arxiv.org/abs/2011.13873v1 |
