In this paper we presented simultaneous H and K band Doppler maps for the brown dwarf binary, revealing persistent patchy structures on WISE 1049B and new polar spots on WISE 1049A. The paper also includes comparisons with simulated Doppler maps from spot models, planetary-scale waves, and 3D GCM.

Global weather map reveals persistent top-of-atmosphere features...
Brown dwarfs and planetary-mass companions display rotationally modulated photometric variability, especially those near the L/T transition. This variability is commonly attributed to...
Super excited that my first PhD paper "Global weather map reveals persistent top-of-atmosphere features on the nearest brown dwarfs" is accepted and now out on arXiv!
Check out the first multi-band weather maps of not just one, but two extrasolar worlds!
