The first wide ultracool binary dwarf in the field: DENIS-J055146.0-443412.2 (M8.5 + L0)
We present observations of a new very low mass field binary, discoveredduring an infrared imaging survey of 250 DENIS L and very late-M dwarfs.DENIS-J055146.0-443412.2 is an M8.5 + L0 pair, with a physicalseparation of over 200 AU. This makes it the widest very low mass binaryknown in the field, by an order of magnitude. Such a system is fragile,and it would not have survived a close encounter with a third body. Itsexistence demonstrate that some very low mass stars/brown dwarfs formwithout ejection from a multiple system, or any other strong dynamicalinteraction.
