I'm trying to find information on this object, mentioned by Dr. Pamela Gay in Fraser's recent, excellent podcast. It sounds like a really interesting "boundary case" in the planet debate, but I'm having trouble locating it, mostly because I'm not sure how to spell it.

Also, I've heard that the objects in Oph 1622 were recently found to be brown dwarf stars, is that true? Dr Gay seemed to be saying that they were still planemos.

Thanks.
