摘要We identify 806 ultracool dwarfs (of which 34 are newly discovered L dwarfs) from their Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) riz photometry and obtain proper motions through cross-matching with the United Kingdom Infrared Telescope Infrared Deep Sky Survey (UKIDSS) and Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS). Proper-motion and distance constraints show that nine of our ultracool dwarfs are members of widely separated binary systems: SDSS 0101 (K5V+M9.5V), SDSS 0207 (M1.5V+L3V), SDSS 0832 (K3III+L3.5V), SDSS 0858 (M4V+L0V), SDSS 0953 (M4V+M9.5V), SDSS 0956 (M2V+M9V), SDSS 1304 (M4.5V+L0V), SDSS 1631 (M5.5V+M8V) and SDSS 1638 (M4V+L0V). One of these (SDSS 0832) is shown to be a companion to the bright K3 giant eta Cancri. Such primaries can provide age and metallicity constraints for any companion objects, yielding excellent benchmark objects. eta Cancri AB is the first wide ultracool dwarf + giant binary system identified. We present new observations and analysis that constrain the metallicity of eta Cancri A to be near-solar, and use recent evolutionary models to constrain the age of the giant to be 2.2-6.1 Gyr. If eta Cancri B is a single object, we estimate its physical attributes to be mass = 63-82 M(Jup), T(eff) = 1800 +/- 150 K, log g = 5.3-5.5, [M/H] = 0.0 +/- 0.1. Its colours are non-typical when compared with other ultracool dwarfs, and we also assess the possibility that eta Cancri B is itself an unresolved binary, showing that the combined light of an L4 + T4 system could provide a reasonable explanation for its colours.
