Brown dwarfs are substellar objects that have more mass than the biggest gas giant planets, but less than the least massive main-sequence stars. Their mass is approximately 13 to 80 times that of Jupiter (MJ)—not big enough to sustain nuclear fusion of ordinary hydrogen (1H) into helium in their cores, but massive enough to emit some light and heat from the fusion of deuterium (2H). The most massive ones can fuse lithium (7Li).
A subdwarf, sometimes denoted by "sd", is a star with luminosity class VI under the Yerkes spectral classification system. They are defined as stars with luminosity 1.5 to 2 magnitudes lower than that of main-sequence stars of the same spectral type. On a Hertzsprung–Russell diagram subdwarfs appear to lie below the main sequence.
A sub-brown dwarf or planetary-mass brown dwarf is an astronomical object that formed in the same manner as stars and brown dwarfs but that has a planetary mass, therefore by definition below the limiting mass for thermonuclear fusion of deuterium . Some researchers call them rogue planets whereas others call them planetary-mass brown dwarfs.
2MASS J05325346+8246465 is possibly the first brown dwarf observed in the galactic halo of the Milky Way, and the first known substellar subdwarf star. It was discovered from Two Micron All-Sky Survey data, and verified by observations at Palomar Observatory and W. M. Keck Observatory. It has a low metallicity, which indicates it is an old star.
2MASS J09393548−2448279 is a probable system of two nearby T-type brown dwarfs, located in constellation Antlia at 17.4 light-years from Earth.
2MASS J04151954−0935066 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T8, in the constellation Eridanus about 18.6 light-years from Earth. This is a reference (standard) object for the definition of the T8 spectral class.
2MASS J09373487+2931409, or 2MASSI J0937347+293142 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T6, located in the constellation Leo about 19.96 light-years from Earth.
SIMP J013656.5+093347 is a brown dwarf or planetary mass object at 19.9 light-years from Earth in the constellation Pisces. It belongs to the spectral class T2.5 and its position shifts due to its proper motion annually by about 1.24 arcsec in the right ascension.
WISE 1541−2250 is a sub-brown or brown dwarf of spectral class Y0.5, located in the constellation Libra at approximately 18.6 light-years from Earth. This object received popular attention when its discovery was announced in 2011 at a distance estimated to be only about 9 light-years, which would have made it the closest brown dwarf known.. It is not the farthest known Y-type brown dwarf to Earth.
WISEPA J041022.71+150248.5 is a sub-brown dwarf of spectral class Y0, located in constellation Taurus. Being approximately 21.6 light-years from Earth, it is one of the Sun's nearest neighbors, especially assuming outdated parallax by Marsh et al., corresponding to even closer distance of approximately 14 light-years.
2MASS J21392676+0220226 is a brown dwarf located 34 light-years from Earth in the constellation Aquarius. Its surface is thought to be host to a massive storm, resulting in large variability of its color. It is a member of the Carina-Near moving group. This brown dwarf was discovered in the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS).
WISEPA J174124.26+255319.5 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T9, located in constellation Hercules at approximately 15.2 light-years from Earth.
WISEPA J025409.45+022359.1 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T8, located in constellation Cetus at approximately 22.3 light-years from Earth.
WISEPC J150649.97+702736.0 is a brown dwarf star of spectral class T6, located in constellation Ursa Minor. It is one of the Sun's nearest neighbors, at a distance of 16.85 light-years. Brown dwarfs closer to the Sun include Luhman 16, WISE 0855−0714, ε Indi Ba and ε Indi Bb.
2MASS J11145133−2618235, or 2M1114−26, or 2M1114−2618, or 2MASS 1114−26, or 2MASS J1114−2618) is a nearby brown dwarf of spectral class T7.5, located in constellation Hydra at approximately 18 light-years from Earth.
2MASS J02431371−2453298 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T6, located in the constellation Fornax about 34.84 light-years from Earth.
2MASS J15031961+2525196 is a nearby brown dwarf of spectral type T5.5, located in the constellation of Boötes at approximately 20.7 light-years from Earth.
2MASS J11263991−5003550(2MASS J1126−5003) is a brown dwarf about 53 light-years distant from earth. The brown dwarf is notable for an unusual blue near-infrared color. This brown dwarf does not show subdwarf features and the blue color cannot be explained by an unresolved binary. Instead the blue color is explained by patchy clouds. The patchy cloud model allows thick clouds and a cloud coverage of 50% to explain the spectra of 2MASS J1126−5003. Other blue L-dwarfs exist, but are quite rare.
