Abstract
  • Well-characterized binary systems will provide valuable opportunities to study the conditions that are necessary for the onset of both auroral and nonauroral magnetospheric radio emission in the ultracool dwarf regime. We present new detections of nonauroral "quiescent" radio emission at 4–8 GHz of the three ultracool dwarf binary systems GJ 564 BC, LP 415-20, and 2MASS J21402931+1625183. We also tentatively detect a highly circularly polarized pulse at 4–6 GHz that may indicate aurorae from GJ 564 BC. Finally, we show that the brightest binary ultracool dwarf systems may be more luminous than predictions from single-object systems.
