    Towards Background-Limited Kinetic Inductance Detectors for a Cryogenic Far-Infrared Space Telescope

    Arrays of tens of thousands of sensitive far-infrared detectors coupled to a cryogenic 4–6 m class orbital telescope are needed to trace the assembly of galaxies over cosmic time. The sensitivity of a 4 Kelvin...

    2MASS Brown Dwarfs and a First Estimate of the Substellar Mass Function

    More than 70 L dwarfs have now been found in followup work on a small portion of the sky surveyed by the Two Micron All Sky Survey. It is estimated that the L dwarfs span a temperature range of 1400 to 2000K. ...
