Enanas marrones
Los enanos marrones son "estrellas fallidas", objetos entre planetas gigantes como Júpiter y estrellas verdaderas. En su interior no hay fusión estable de hidrógeno como en el Sol, solo una combustión limitada de deuterio. Si orbitan estrellas, parecen parientes lejanos de los planetas, pero también existen vagabundos solitarios. Sus temperaturas son mucho más bajas que las de las estrellas, enfriándose a veces hasta niveles terrestres.
- Percentage of Enanas marrones within 98.5 años luz: 12.24 % (1165 from 9520 stars)
- Average masa of Enanas marrones: 1.2-8.0% solar mass
- Average radius of Enanas marrones: 9-11% solar radius
- Average temperatura of Enanas marrones: 600-2500 K

Massive brown dwarf HD 203771 b confirmed in eccentric orbit around orange dwarf
14. 10. 2026
Estrellas | Exoplanetas | Enana naranja | Enanas marroneThe massive brown dwarf known as HD 203771 b has been characterized as orbiting its host orange dwarf star once every 1140 days. Brown dwarfs are often called failed stars because they are more massive than planets but not heavy enough to sustain the nuclear fusion that powers stars. This particular companion follows an eccentric, or elongated, path that is inclined at an angle of approximately 130 degrees relative to its host. The host star itself has a mass estimated at 0.79 times that of the ...
