We present a new grid of cloudy atmosphere and evolution models for substellar objects. These models include the effect of refractory cloud species, including silicate clouds, on the spectra and evolution. We include effective temperatures from 900 to 2400 K and surface gravities from log g=3.5-5.5, appropriate for a broad range of objects with masses between 1 and 84 Jupiter masses. Model pressure-temperature structures are calculated assuming radiative-convective and chemical equilibrium. We consider the effect of both clouds and metallicity on the atmospheric structure, resulting spectra, and thermal evolution of substellar worlds. We parameterize clouds using the Ackerman & Marley (2001) cloud model, including cloud parameter fsed values from 1-8; we include three metallicities (-0.5, 0.0, and +0.5). Refractory clouds and metallicity both alter the evolution of substellar objects, changing the inferred temperature at a given age by up to 100-200 K. We compare to the observed photometry of brown dwarfs, finding broad agreement with the measured photometry. We publish the spectra, evolution, and other data products online with open access.

NIRCam yells at cloud: JWST MIRI imaging can directly detect exoplanets of the same temperature, mass, age, and orbital separation as Saturn and Jupiter
MIRI F2100W imaging can detect 95-125 K giant exoplanets around nearby M-dwarfs, including Saturn analogs, and beats NIRCam coronagraphy for cloudy cold planets within about 20 pc.

The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems VIII: patchy forsterite and enstatite clouds in the atmosphere of VHS 1256 b, retrieval lessons learned and outlook to the future
A retrieval of the full JWST 1-18 micron spectrum of VHS 1256 b prefers patchy forsterite and enstatite clouds over an iron deck, but the ranking is conditioned on a 10x NIRSpec error inflation.

On the Eccentricity Distribution and Tidal Evolution of Transiting Brown Dwarfs
Short-period (P<16 d) transiting brown dwarfs are low-eccentricity while longer-period ones are more excited; assuming a shared primordial Beta distribution, tidal evolution constrains Q_BD ≈ 10^{7.1–8.1}.

Classifying Cool Dwarfs: Comprehensive Spectral Typing of Field and Peculiar Dwarfs Using Machine Learning
A K-nearest-neighbors model trained on noise-added standard spectra classifies M0-T9 cool dwarfs within one subtype 95.5% of the time and assigns gravity or metallicity class correctly 89.5% of the time on 1,300 held-...

JWST Coronagraphic Images of 14 Her c: a Cold Giant Planet in a Dynamically Hot, Multi-planet System
JWST/NIRCam imaging detects 14 Her c at 5.7 sigma and revises the system's orbits, supporting a dynamically hot architecture with a possible cold cloudy atmosphere.

Orbital Modeling of HII 1348B: An Eccentric Young Substellar Companion in the Pleiades
First orbital fit for the Pleiades brown dwarf HII 1348B from five astrometric epochs yields a wide (a = 140 au) and eccentric (e = 0.78) orbit, with a model-inferred mass of 60-63 Jupiter masses.

The $\texttt{MSG}$ model for cloudy substellar atmospheres: A grid of self-consistent substellar atmosphere models with microphysical cloud formation
The new MSG model grid produces redder near-infrared spectra than observed and cannot reproduce the 10-micron silicate absorption feature seen by JWST and Spitzer, despite self-consistent microphysical clouds.

Phase-resolved Hubble Space Telescope WFC3 Spectroscopy of Weakly-Irradiated Brown Dwarf GD 1400 and Energy Redistribution-Irradiation Trends in Six WD$-$BD Binaries
GD 1400B's day and night hemispheres are nearly identical in temperature and composition, indicating efficient heat redistribution, and a six-object sample suggests a 10^9 erg/s/cm2 threshold for redistribution efficiency.
