2MASS J03480772−6022270 is a brown dwarf of spectral class T7, located in the constellation Reticulum approximately 27.2 light-years from the Sun. It was discovered by astronomer Adam Burgasser and collaborators of the 2MASS Wide-Field T Dwarf Search in 2002. With a rotation period of 1.08 hours, it is the fastest-rotating brown dwarf confirmed as of 2022. The rotational velocity at its equator is over 100 km/s (62 mi/s), approaching the predicted rotational speed limit beyond which it would break apart due to centripetal forces. As a consequence of its rapid rotation, the brown dwarf is slightly flattened at its poles to a similar degree as Saturn, the most oblate planet in the Solar System. Its rapid rotation may enable strong auroral radio emissions via charged particle interactions in its magnetic field, as observed in other known rapidly-rotating brown dwarfs.
