(Currie et al., ApJ, 707, 104, 2014): spectral type L0±1. Very dusty/cloudy planet.

(Bowler et al. 2014): strong FeH absorptions.

(Bowler et al. 2014): a candidate for a second companion marked in previous observations is very likely a background object.

Beware that the first B in ROXs-42 B (AB) is because it is the second brightest conterpart of the X-ray source ROXs-42 but it is not gravitationally bound to it.
