Evidence for rapid evolution of periodic variations in an ultracool dwarf
(Oxford University Press, 2006)The results of three short photometric monitoring runs on the L0 dwarf 2MASS J06050196−2342270, during three consecutive nights, are presented. The observations show the persistent presence of a 2.4-h period, with an IC ... -
IC and RC band time-series observations of some bright ultracool dwarfs
(Oxford University Press, 2005)The results of more than 100 h of CCD photometric monitoring of 10 L dwarfs and two T dwarfs are presented. Reasonable evidence is shown for IC band variability in DENIS 0255−4700, DENIS 1705−0516 and 2M 2104−1037. ... -
JHKs time-series observations of a few ultracool dwarfs
(Oxford University Press, 2005)The M8.5 object SSSPM J0109−5101 has recently been shown to be both a periodic and a flaring variable, based on optical observations in the extreme red. More than 16 h of monitoring in the near-infrared (NIR) reported ... -
Multicolour time series photometry of 2MASS 1207−3932
(Oxford University Press, 2008)Time series photometry in VRI of the young brown dwarf Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) J1207334−393254 is presented. Variability in I is insignificant, but amplitudes up to ∼0.2 mag in R, and ∼0.55 mag in V, are seen ... -
Multicolour time series photometry of three periodic ultracool dwarfs
(Oxford University Press, 2013)Photometry in I, or contemporaneously in I and R, of the known variable ultracool dwarfs Kelu-1 and 2MASS J11553952−3727350 is presented. The nature of the variability of Kelu-1 appears to evolve on time-scales of a day ... -
Near-infrared time-series photometry of six fields in the young open cluster IC 2391
(Oxford University Press, 2006)Fields containing targets of spectral types later than M5 were monitored in JHKs for about 7 h each. None of the targets showed variability at levels exceeding 0.02 (or smaller, in some cases). Seven new variable stars ... -
Photometry of the magnetic white dwarf SDSS 121209.31+013627.7
(Oxford University Press, 2006)The results of 27 h of time series photometry of SDSS 121209.31+013627.7 are presented. The binary period established from spectroscopy is confirmed and refined to 0.061 412 d (88.43 min). The photometric variations are ...
