A study of the uneven distribution of brown dwarfs in the cosmic neighborhood
An article published in the journal “Astronomy & Astrophysics” describes a study of the brown dwarfs that should be present in the cosmic neighborhood. A team of astronomers from the Leibniz-Institut für Astrophysik Potsdam (AIP), Germany, re-analyzed data from observations and cataloging of the brown dwarfs less than six and a half parsecs from Earth and concluded that there should be more of them and maybe we haven’t found them yet.
