Abstract
We present a comprehensive analysis of a Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) high-quality light curve for a young brown dwarf, MHO 4 having spectral type M7.0, in the Taurus star-forming region. We investigate the rotation periods and characterize the brown dwarf’s dynamic atmosphere and surface features. Our light curve analysis of MHO 4 reveals a rotation period of approximately 2.224 days. Remarkably, MHO 4 exhibits two significant flaring events. Furthermore, we estimate the bolometric flare energies to be within the energy range of 1034 to 1035 erg, classifying them as superflares.
Keywords : brown dwarfs, TESS, photometric variability, periodic variables, starspots
