9 Dec 2002 | Journal: | Mon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 341 (2003) 239 | Subject: | astro-ph | Affiliation: | ESO/Chile, IoA Cambridge), C.G. Tinney (AAO), S.T. Hodgkin (IoA Cambridge | Abstract: | We report the results of observations designed to investigate the spectroscopic signatures of dust clouds on the L2 brown dwarf Kelu-1. Time resolved medium resolution spectra show no significant evidence of variability in the dust sensitive TiO, CrH and FeH bandheads on the timescale of 1--24 hours. We do however report periodic variability in the psuedo-equivelent width of H-alpha consistent with the 1.8 hour rotation period previously reported for this object Clarke, Tinney & Tolley (2002). Near-contemporaneous I-band photometry shows evidence for non-periodic variability at the level of 2%. | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0301155 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
