Naines brunes

Les naines brunes sont des « étoiles ratées », entre les planètes géantes comme Jupiter et les vraies étoiles. Leur cœur ne permet pas la fusion stable de l'hydrogène comme le Soleil, mais seulement une combustion limitée de deutérium. En orbite, elles ressemblent à de lointaines cousines des planètes, mais certaines errent seules. Leurs températures sont bien plus basses que celles des étoiles, refroidissant parfois jusqu'à des niveaux terrestres.
  • Percentage of Naines brunes within 98.5 années lumière: 12.24 % (1165 from 9521 stars)
  • Average masse of Naines brunes: 1.2-8.0% solar mass
  • Average rayon of Naines brunes: 9-11% solar radius
  • Average température of Naines brunes: 600-2500 K

Image: Massive brown dwarf HD 203771 b confirmed in eccentric orbit around orange dwarf
The 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 ...

Image: Silicate clouds and gaseous silicon monoxide identified in three early L-dwarf objects
Analysis of three early L-dwarfs, HD 89744 B, Gliese 1048 B, and LSPM J0632+5053 B, reveals gaseous silicon monoxide and silicate clouds in their atmospheres. JWST data confirms these mineral clouds form as silicon gas condenses, mimicking processes in giant planets....
