Indirect detection experiments typically measure the flux of annihilating dark matter (DM)
particles propagating freely through galactic halos. We consider a new scenario where …

We conduct a pebble-driven planet population synthesis study to investigate the formation of
planets around very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs in the (sub) stellar mass range …

In astrometric binaries, the presence of a dark, unseen star can be inferred from the
gravitational pull it induces on its luminous binary companion. While the orbit of such …

In the star-formation process, the vital impact of environmental factors such as feedback from
massive stars and stellar density on the form of the initial mass function (IMF) at the low …

Free-floating (or rogue) planets are planets that are liberated (or ejected) from their host
systems. Although simulations predict their existence in substantial numbers, direct …

Context. Measurements of internal dynamics of young clusters and star-forming regions are
crucial to fully understand the process of their formation. A basic prerequisite for this is a well …

Context. The dominant formation channel of brown dwarfs (BDs) is not well constrained yet
and a promising way to discriminate between scenarios is to test the environment …

The discovery and characterization of free-floating planetary-mass objects (FFPMOs) is
fundamental to our understanding of star and planet formation. Here we report results from …

We present a volume-limited, spectroscopically verified sample of M7− L5 ultracool dwarfs
(UCDs) within 25 pc. The sample contains 410 sources, of which 93% have trigonometric …
