摘要:

We present the discovery of only the third brown dwarf known to eclipse a nonaccreting white dwarf. Gaia parallax information and multi-colour photometry confirm that the white dwarf is cool (9950±150 K) and has a low mass (0.45±0.05 Msun ), and spectra and lightcurves suggest the brown dwarf has a mass of 0.067 ±0.006 Msun (70 MJup) and a spectral type of L5±1. The kinematics of the system show that the binary is likely to be a member of the thick disk and therefore at least 5 Gyr old. The high cadence lightcurves show that the brown dwarf is inflated, making it the first brown dwarf in an eclipsing white dwarf-brown dwarf binary to be so.
