DescripcióNearby young brown dwarf disk WISEA J120037.79-784508.3.png
English: WISEA J120037.79-784508.3 (W1200-7845), a young brown dwarf between 42-58x the mass of Jupiter, with a warm circumstellar disk system with a fairly high fractional infrared luminosity but low effective temperature. Located 102 parsecs (or 333 lightyears) away, it is a likely member of the 3.7 million-year-old ε Chamaeleontis (ε Cha) association, making it the closest brown dwarf debris disk system to Earth and within the local Solar neighborhood. The depiction was created for NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (using GIMP, 3DS Max, and incorporating certain NASA star maps and satellite images) for press release of the relaunch of Disk Detective Project version 2.1 (https://science.nasa.gov/science-news/citizenscience/disk-detective-2-1-is-live-come-join-the-search), and announcing the discovery of W1200-7845's debris disk (https://blog.diskdetective.org/2020/08/12/our-new-paper-discovery-of-nearby-young-brown-dwarf-disk/), with an associated paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.15735v2) published by NASA's Disk Detective Project in the Astrophysical Journal (ApJ).
