# TESS Program G022164 Title: Exploring The Variability Of Ultracool Dwarfs With TESS PI: Pineda, J. Sebastian - University Of Colorado Type: SMALL Summary: We propose to conduct the most comprehensive study of variability in very-low mass stars and brown dwarfs, enabled by the TESS mission s long-term continuous photometric monitoring, red sensitive passband and broad sky coverage. We will examine the light-curves of nearly a thousand spectroscopically verified ultracool dwarfs to characterize brightness modulations, measure rotation periods and determine flare rates, including a sample of two min cadence targets to study flare profiles and short duration variability. This study will fundamentally probe the nature of the atmospheric, structural, and rotational changes at the end of the stellar main sequence, and how these physical processes manifest as broadband variability through magnetic activity and weather. # Sector 014 targets observed (17) 232629531,269.1202,55.0885,13.96,G022164;G022198 232650035,281.7655,55.3784,13.92,G022164;G022198 298554585,271.8166,50.258,16.28,G022182;G022164 320524973,264.9716,55.5463,14.46,G022164 157955474,280.8413,40.6758,13.69,G022164;G022198 274127413,298.4824,44.4124,10.35,G022164;G022076;G022080 219869957,259.5983,68.0409,14.05,G022164;G022198 230120143,250.0821,67.6033,11.98,G022164;G022076;G022198;G022056 287151936,253.8246,62.4141,11.66,G022164;G022198 307956653,256.8292,64.6587,15.49,G022164 219095664,269.3143,70.7021,13.88,G022164;G022198 229644973,280.0102,72.6827,13.27,G022164;G022198 420130591,291.076,75.5565,11.87,G022164;G022076;G022198 159508739,246.8595,81.087,16.11,G022164 288428941,269.2501,78.998,14.37,G022164;G022198 356632694,232.2908,63.2152,14.17,G022164 313007938,137.8003,74.0181,15.78,G022164 # Sector 015 targets observed (18) 232650035,281.7656,55.3783,13.92,G022164;G022198 274127413,298.4824,44.4124,10.35,G022164;G022076;G022080 277422933,310.8387,55.3575,11.68,G022164;G022252;G022062 232629531,269.1202,55.0885,13.96,G022164;G022198 287151936,253.8246,62.4141,11.66,G022164;G022198 307956653,256.8292,64.6587,15.49,G022164 320524973,264.9716,55.5463,14.46,G022164 219095664,269.3143,70.7021,13.88,G022164;G022198 229644973,280.0102,72.6827,13.27,G022164;G022198 288428941,269.2501,78.998,14.37,G022164;G022198 420130591,291.076,75.5565,11.87,G022164;G022076;G022198 230120143,250.0821,67.6033,11.98,G022164;G022076;G022198;G022056 356632694,232.2908,63.2152,14.17,G022164 154383758,217.6487,59.7244,13.09,G022164 405503787,224.4767,56.6533,12.08,G022164;G022076;G022198 141247464,187.2977,53.5524,14.31,G022164;G022238;G022198 165453967,200.8496,51.5409,14.78,G022164 284757460,201.5687,56.679,14.35,G022164;G022198 # Sector 016 targets observed (20) 420130591,291.0761,75.5565,11.87,G022164;G022076;G022198 232650035,281.7656,55.3783,13.92,G022164;G022198 277422933,310.8387,55.3575,11.68,G022164;G022252;G022062 329083521,319.3456,64.0442,11.87,G022164 412650616,329.6535,61.2856,13.22,G022164;G022198 232629531,269.1202,55.0885,13.96,G022164;G022198 307956653,256.8292,64.6587,15.49,G022164 320524973,264.9716,55.5463,14.46,G022164 219095664,269.3143,70.7021,13.88,G022164;G022198 219869957,259.5983,68.0409,14.05,G022164;G022198 229644973,280.0102,72.6827,13.27,G022164;G022198 230120143,250.0821,67.6033,11.98,G022164;G022076;G022198;G022056 356632694,232.2908,63.2152,14.17,G022164 287151936,253.8246,62.4141,11.66,G022164;G022198 193974787,230.2548,50.8887,14.56,G022164;G022252 405503787,224.4767,56.6532,12.08,G022164;G022076;G022198 154383758,217.6487,59.7244,13.09,G022164 165453967,200.8496,51.5409,14.78,G022164 198107795,209.1694,43.7166,13.46,G022164 27322306,212.3816,41.636,12.63,G022164;G022198 # Sector 017 targets observed (19) 15652493,16.9773,26.1139,13.97,G022164;G022198 426959594,9.0724,18.3536,15.93,G022182;G022164 201929047,3.2409,50.9884,13.34,G022164;G022109;G022148;G022198 452882423,2.8729,59.138,11.93,G022164;G022252;G022076 177175753,356.8362,42.6368,12.86,G022164;G022198 412650616,329.6535,61.2856,13.22,G022164;G022198 323057249,319.4332,73.7682,13.75,G022164;G022198 329083521,319.3456,64.0442,11.87,G022164 219095664,269.3143,70.7021,13.88,G022164;G022198 229644973,280.0102,72.6827,13.27,G022164;G022198 288428941,269.2501,78.998,14.37,G022164;G022198 420130591,291.0761,75.5566,11.87,G022164;G022076;G022198 219869957,259.5983,68.0409,14.05,G022164;G022198 230120143,250.0821,67.6033,11.98,G022164;G022076;G022198;G022056 287151936,253.8247,62.4141,11.66,G022164;G022198 307956653,256.8292,64.6587,15.49,G022164 188819782,262.6161,52.718,13.11,G022164;G022198 232629531,269.1202,55.0885,13.96,G022164;G022198 320524973,264.9716,55.5463,14.46,G022164
