In 2017, more accurate analysis found it to be a binary system made up of two substellar objects of spectral class≥Y1 in orbit less than one astronomical unit from each other.[2]


Discovery


WISE 0535−7500 was discovered in 2012 by J. Davy Kirkpatrick et al. from data, collected by Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) Earth-orbiting satellite — NASA infrared-wavelength 40-centimetre (16 in) space telescope, which mission lasted from December 2009 to February 2011. In 2012 Kirkpatrick et al. published a paper in The Astrophysical Journal, where they presented the discovery of seven new found by WISE brown dwarfs of spectral type Y, among which also was WISE 0535−7500.[1]


Distance


Trigonometric parallax of WISE 0535−7500 is 0.070 ± 0.005 arcsec, corresponding to a distance of 14 pc and 47 ly.[2]


Y dwarf


Brown dwarfs are defined as substellar objects that have at some time in their lives burnt deuterium in their interior. The borderline between a brown dwarf and a planet is conventionally taken to be 13 times the mass of Jupiter. All brown dwarfs are either M dwarfs, L dwarfs, T dwarfs or Y dwarfs, in order of decreasing temperature. An increasing number after the letter in the spectral type also means decreasing temperature, a Y2 dwarf is cooler than a Y1 dwarf is cooler than a Y0 dwarf. Planets can also be L dwarfs, T dwarfs or Y dwarfs.[3]

WISE 0535−7500 или WISE J053516.80−750024.9 — объект спектрального класса Y1, расположенный в созвездии Столовая Гора. По состоянию на октябрь 2015 года, расстояние до объекта оценивается в 13 световых лет[1], что делает его третьим по удалённости объектом спектрального класса Y от Солнца, после объектов WISE 0855-0714 и WISE 0350−5658.
