The Coldest Brown Dwarf (Or Free Floating Planet)?: The Y Dwarf WISE 1828+2650

We have monitored the position of the cool Y dwarf WISEPA J182831.08+265037.8 using a combination of ground- and space-based telescopes and have determined its distance to be 11.2\(_{-1.0}^{+1.3}\) pc. Its absolute H magnitude, M\(_H=22.21^{+0.25}_{-0.22}\) mag, suggests a mass in the range 0.5-20 M...
